The plastic strain (εp), yielding strength (σy) and fracture strength (σf) of the studied Cu-based BMGs significantly depend on the aspect ratio and the loading rate. In addition, theσyof the studied Cu-based BMGs with an aspect ratio of 1:1 is close to the σfof those with the other aspect ratios when the loading rate is1×10^-2s^-1. The mechanism for the mechanical response to the loading rate and the aspect ratiowas also discussed.展开更多

It is reported that adjacent facet joint stresses increase alter anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. This increase of stress rate may lead to tissue injury. Thus far, the load rate of the adjacent segment facet joint after fusion remains unclear. Methods: Six C2-C7 cadaveric spine specimens were loaded under tour motion modes: Flexion, extension, rotation, and lateral bending, with a pure moment using a 6° robot arm combined with an optical motion analysis system. The Tecscan pressure test system was used for testing facet joint pressure. Results: The contact mode of the facet joints and distributions of the force center during different motions were recorded. The adjacent segment facet joint forces increased faster after fusion, compared with intact conditions. While the magnitude of pressures increased, there was no difference in distribution modes before and after fusion. No pressures were detected during flexion. The average growth velocity during extension was the fastest and was significantly faster than lateral bending. Conclusions: One of the reasons for cartilage injury was the increasing stress rate of loading. This implies that ASD after fusion may be related to habitual movement before and after fusion. More and faster extension is disadvantageous for the facet joints and should be reduced as much as possible.展开更多

Fifty-four coal–rock combinations were prepared and split equally into groups containing different moisture contents(dry, natural moisture and saturated) to conduct acoustic emission testing under uniaxial compression with loading rates ranging from 0.1 mm/min to 0.6 mm/min. The results show that the peak stress and strength-softening modulus, elastic modulus, strain-softening modulus, and post-peak modulus partly decrease with increasing moisture content and loading rate. In contrast, peak strain increases with increasing moisture content and fluctuates with rising loading rate. More significantly, the relationship between stiffness and stress, combined with accumulated counts of acoustic emission, can be used to precisely predict all phases of crack propagation. This is helpful in studying the impact of moisture content and loading rate on crack propagation and accurately calculating mechanical properties. We also determined that the stress thresholds of crack closure, crack initiation, and crack damage do not vary with changes of moisture content and loading rate, constituting 15.22%, 32.20%, and 80.98% of peak stress, respectively. These outcomes assist in developing approaches to water storage in coal mines, determining the necessary width of waterproof coal–rock pillars, and methods of supporting water-enriched roadways, while also advances understanding the mechanical properties of coal–rock combinations and laws of crack propagation.展开更多

The results sh...In order to enhance the hydraulic loading rate (HLR) of a subsurface wastewater infiltration system (SWIS) used in treating domestic sewage, the intermittent operation mode was employed in the SWIS. The results show that the intermittent operation mode contributes to the improvement of the HLR and the pollutant removal rate. When the wetting-drying ratio (RwD) was 1.0, the pollutant removal rate increased by (13.6 ± 0.3)% for NH3-N, (20.7 ± 1.1)% for TN, (18.6± 0.4)% for TP, (12.2 ± 0.5)% for BOD, (10.1 ± 0.3)% for COD, and (36.2 ± 1.2)% for SS, compared with pollutant removal rates under the continuous operation mode. The pollutant removal rate declined with the increase of the HLR. The effluent quality met The Reuse of Urban Recycling Water - Water Quality Standard for Scenic Environment Use (GB/T 18921-2002) even when the HLR was as high as 10 cm/d. Hydraulic conductivity, oxidation reduction potential (ORP), the quantity of nitrifying bacteria, and the pollutant removal rate of NH3-N increased with the decrease of the RWD. For the pollutant removal rates of TP, BOD, and COD, there were no significant difference (p 〈 0.05) under different RwDS. The suggested RWD was 1.0. Relative contribution of the pretreatment and SWlS to the pollutant removal was examined, and more than 80% removal of NH3-N, TN, TP, COD, and BOD occurred in the SWIS.展开更多

文摘This work aims to reveal the mechanical responses and energy evolution characteristics of skarn rock under constant amplitude-varied frequency loading paths.Testing results show that the fatigue lifetime,stress−strain responses,deformation,energy dissipation and fracture morphology are all impacted by the loading rate.A pronounced influence of the loading rate on rock deformation is found,with slower loading rate eliciting enhanced strain development,alongside augmented energy absorption and dissipation.In addition,it is revealed that the loading rate and cyclic loading amplitude jointly influence the phase shift distribution,with accelerated rates leading to a narrower phase shift duration.It is suggested that lower loading rate leads to more significant energy dissipation.Finally,the tensile or shear failure modes were intrinsically linked to loading strategy,with cyclic loading predominantly instigating shear damage,as manifest in the increased presence of pulverized grain particles.This work would give new insights into the fortification of mining structures and the optimization of mining methodologies.

文摘Tensile cracking is a predominant mode of failure in rocks within underground resource excavation and engineering structures,where rocks are frequently subjected to dynamic disturbances while simultaneously experiencing in-situ stresses.This paper proposes a new dynamic split tension setup utilising a cubic specimen to investigate the dynamic behaviour of rocks across various tensile strain rates and confining pressures.The objective is to extend the applicability of the triaxial Hopkinson bar in studying dynamic behaviour of geomaterials.For comparison,the dynamic Brazilian disc(BD)tests were performed using three rock types(e.g.,sandstone,granite and marble)under different strain rates ranging from 10^(−3)∼10^(2) s^(−1).Besides,the Digital Image Correlation(DIC)technique was adopted to measure full-field real-time tensile strain of rocks and demonstrated that tensile crack initiated at the middle part and split the specimen into two similar halves.Effects of specimen size,geometry,loading rate as well as the confining pressure are investigated in detail.The dynamic fracture behaviours,including dynamic tensile strength,tensile strain,time to fracture and dynamic increase factor(DIF),were characterised for the rocks.It is found that dynamic tensile strength of rock minimal dependence on size and geometry but is significantly influenced by loading rate and confinement.It exhibited a linear increase with strain rate(10^(0)∼10^(2) s^(−1))and demonstrated a nonlinear growth with lateral confinement from 0 to 15 MPa.The nonlinear dependency on confinement can be attributed to the restriction imposed on the opening and propagation of tensile cracks due to the presence of confinement.These findings enhance our understanding of the safety aspects associated with underground rock excavations,particularly in situations where considering in-situ stress is crucial for evaluating the dynamic tensile failure of rocks.

文摘In this study,a uniaxial cyclic compression test is conducted on coal-rock composite structures under two cyclic loads using MTSE45.104 testing apparatus to investigate the macro-mesoscopic deformation,damage behavior,and energy evolution characteristics of these structures under different cyclic stress disturbances.Three loading and unloading rates(LURs)are tested to examine the damage behaviors and energy-driven characteristics of the composites.The findings reveal that the energy-driven behavior,mechanical properties,and macro-micro degradation characteristics of the composites are significantly influenced by the loading rate.Under the gradual cyclic loading and unloading(CLU)path with a constant lower limit(path I)and the CLU path with variable upper and lower boundaries(path II),an increase in LURs from 0.05 to 0.15 mm/min reduces the average loading time by 32.39%and 48.60%,respectively.Consequently,the total number of cracks in the samples increases by 1.66-fold for path I and 1.41-fold for path II.As LURs further increase,the energy storage limit of samples expands,leading to a higher proportion of transmatrix and shear cracks.Under both cyclic loading conditions,a broader cyclic stress range promotes energy dissipation and the formation of internal fractures.Notably,at higher loading rates,cracks tend to propagate along primary weak surfaces,leading to an increased incidence of intermatrix fractures.This behavior indicates a microscopic feature of the failure mechanisms in composite structures.These results provide a theoretical basis for elucidating the damage and failure characteristics of coal-rock composite structures under cyclic stress disturbances.

文摘Nitrogen oxides(NO_(x))and particulate matter(PM)present significant risks to both human health and environmental sustainability.The Integrated Dust Removal and Denitrification Technology(DRDt)offers a more efficient and cost-effective solution for achieving ultralow industrial flue gas emissions;however,its effectiveness is undermined by low catalyst load rates and poor stability in filter materials.This study addresses these limitations by modifying conventional PTFE filter media(PTFE-Tim)through the incorporation of sodium alginate(SA)and dopamine(DA)as modifiers,resulting in two new filter materials:PTFE-SA-MOF and PTFE-DA-MOF.By optimizing the parameters of an orthogonal experimental design,we identified the ideal preparation conditions for these composite materials.The addition of SA and DA enhanced the bonding between the catalyst(Mn-Cu-MOF)crystal particles and the PTFE fibers through mechanisms such as ion exchange,hydrogen bonding,and adhesion.Consequently,the catalyst loading rate and stability of the DRDt filters were significantly improved.Specifically,the PTFE-SA-MOF and PTFE-DA-MOF filters achieved high catalyst loading rates of 15.97% and 15.86%,these values represent improvements of 2.53 and 2.51 times,while maintaining excellent stability,with mass retention rates of 98.64% and 98.27%,respectively,over the conventional PTFE-Tim filter.

文摘In order to study the mechanics,acoustic emission(AE)and electromagnetic emission(EME)response law of bursting liability coal at different loading rates,uniaxial compression tests were carried out on coal mass from Konggu Coal Mine.The corresponding relations among mechanical properties,AE and EME signals in the process of coal failure under loading were analyzed,and the energy evolution law of coal failure with bursting liability under loading rate was discussed.The results show that within a certain range of loading rate,the higher the loading rate,the higher the compressive strength and peak load of bursting liability coal,and the shorter the time for coal to reach the peak load.Under different loading rates,the mechanics,AE and EME signals of coal samples can be well corresponded.When the loading rate is low,the number of blocks destroyed of coal sample is large and the block size is relatively small,and the blocks are mainly scattered around the test platform.When the loading rate is high,the number of damaged blocks is relatively small and the block size is relatively large,and the blocks are far away from the test bench.When loading at a low rate,the internal cracks in coal can be fully developed and connected,and the energy release rate is relatively uniform in the process of loading and failure of coal sample.In the case of high loading rate,the energy release rate of coal sample in the loading process is much smaller than that in the moment of failure.Combining the above test results with the actual situation of the working face,it can be concluded that the total energy stored in the coal of fast mining increases and the threshold of impact decreases compared with that of slow mining.Therefore,under the disturbance of external dynamic load,rapid mining is more likely to induce rock burst.

文摘Understanding the effects of microwave irradiation and thermal treatment on the dynamic compression and fragmentation properties of rocks is essential to quantify energy consumption in rock engineering.In this study,Fangshan granite(FG)specimens were exposed to microwave irradiation and heat treatment.The damage of FG specimens induced by these two methods was compared using X-ray CT scanning and ultrasonic wave method.The temperatures of FG after microwave irradiation and thermal treatment were effectively evaluated using a newly proposed technique.A novelty method for precisely determining the geometric features of fragments is developed to estimate the fragmentation energy.Thus,the dynamic uniaxial compressive strength(UCS),the dynamic fragmentation characteristics,and the fragmentation energy of FG after these two pretreatment methods can be reasonably compared.The noticeable distinction of loading rate effect on the dynamic UCS of FG between these two pretreatment methods is first observed.A relationship is established between the dynamic UCS and the damage induced by microwave irradiation and heat treatment.Moreover,fragmentation energy fan analysis is introduced to accurately compare the fragmentation properties of FG after two pretreatment methods in dynamic compression tests.

文摘A biochar-assisted anaerobic membrane bioreactor(BC-AnMBR)was conducted to evaluate the performance in treating swine wastewater with different organic loading rates(OLR)ranging from 0.38 to 1.13 kg-COD/(m3.d).Results indicated that adding spent coffee grounds biochar(SCG-BC)improved the organic removal efficiency compared to the conventional AnMBR,with an overall COD removal rate of>95.01%.Meanwhile,methane production of up to 0.22 LCH4/gCOD with an improvement of 45.45%was achieved under a high OLR of 1.13 kg-COD/(m3.d).Furthermore,the transmembrane pressure(TMP)in the BC-AnMBR system was stable at 4.5 kPa,and no irreversible membrane fouling occurred within 125 days.Microbial community analysis revealed that the addition of SCG-BC increased the relative abundance of autotrophic methanogenic archaea,particularly Methanosarcina(from 0.11%to 11.16%)and Methanothrix(from 16.34%to 24.05%).More importantly,Desulfobacterota and Firmicutes phylum with direct interspecific electron transfer(DIET)capabilities were also enriched with autotrophic methanogens.Analysis of the electron transfer pathway showed that the concentration of c-type cytochromes increased by 38.60%in the presence of SCGBC,and thus facilitated the establishment of DIET and maintained high activity of the elec-tron transfer system even at high OLR.In short,the BC-AnMBR system performs well under various OLR conditions and is stable in the recovery energy system for swine wastewater.

文摘The graded density impactor(GDI)dynamic loading technique is crucial for acquiring the dynamic physical property parameters of materials used in weapons.The accuracy and timeliness of GDI structural design are key to achieving controllable stress-strain rate loading.In this study,we have,for the first time,combined one-dimensional fluid computational software with machine learning methods.We first elucidated the mechanisms by which GDI structures control stress and strain rates.Subsequently,we constructed a machine learning model to create a structure-property response surface.The results show that altering the loading velocity and interlayer thickness has a pronounced regulatory effect on stress and strain rates.In contrast,the impedance distribution index and target thickness have less significant effects on stress regulation,although there is a matching relationship between target thickness and interlayer thickness.Compared with traditional design methods,the machine learning approach offers a10^(4)—10^(5)times increase in efficiency and the potential to achieve a global optimum,holding promise for guiding the design of GDI.

文摘To address the inherent trade-off between mechanical strength and repair efficiency in conventional microcapsule-based self-healing technologies,this study presents an eggshell-inspired approach for fabricating high-load rigid porous microcapsules(HLRPMs)through subcritical water etching.By optimizing the subcritical water treatment parameters(OH−concentration:0.031 mol/L,tem-perature:240°C,duration:1.5 h),nanoscale through-holes were generated on hollow glass microspheres(shell thickness≈700 nm).The subsequent gradient pressure infiltration of flaxseed oil enabled a record-high core content of 88.2%.Systematic investigations demonstrated that incorporating 3 wt%HLRPMs into epoxy resin composites preserved excellent dielectric properties(breakdown strength≥30 kV/mm)and enhanced tensile strength by 7.52%.In addressing multimodal damage,the system achieved a 95.5%filling efficiency for mechanical scratches,a 97.0%reduction in frictional damage depth,and a 96.2%recovery of insulation following electrical treeing.This biomimetic microcapsule system concurrently improved self-healing capability and matrix performance,offering a promising strategy for the development of next-generation smart insulating materials.

文摘Soil responds to cavity expansion is inherently rate-dependent,especially in the case of fine-grained soils.To better understand such rate effects,self-boring pressuremeter tests were conducted on Kunming peaty soil within a strain rate range of 0.1%/min to 5.0%/min.The results showed a clear dependence of cavity pressure and excess pore pressure(EPP)on strain ratesdboth increased with higher rates for a given radial displacement.In light of the experimental results,three cases of cylindrical cavity expansion were investigated using the finite element method and analytical method,partially drained expansion in Modified Cam-Clay(MCC)soil,and undrained and partially drained expansion in elastoviscoplastic(EVP)soil.The EVP behavior was and modeled using the MCC model and the overstress viscoplastic theory.The results indicated that over the strain rate range of 0.0001%/min and 50%/min,the rate response of cavity pressure for the case of partially drained expansion in MCC soil(permeability coefficient ranging from 5×10^(-6) m/s to 2.5×10^(-11) m/s)is not obvious,while the EPP response during undrained expansion in EVP soil shows rate-independent.Only the partially drained solution for cavity expansion in EVP soil captured the rate-sensitive responses of both cavity pressure and EPP,confirmed by the pressuremeter tests on the Kunming peaty soil,Saint-Herblain clay,and Burswood clay.This suggests that the rate effect results from a combination of drainage-related and time-dependent soil behavior.Parametric studies further demonstrated that both viscous behavior and the overconsolidation ratio significantly influence cylindrical cavity expansion response,and the drainage conditions during expansion can be assessed using a nondimensional velocity.

文摘Controllable shock wave fracturing is an innovative engineering technique used for shale reservoir fracturing and reformation.Understanding the anisotropic fracture mechanism of shale under impact loading is vital for optimizing shock wave fracturing equipment and enhancing shale oil production.In this study,using the well-known notched semi-circular bend(NSCB)sample and the novel double-edge notched flattened Brazilian disc(DNFBD)sample combined with a split Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB),various dynamic anisotropic fracture properties of Lushan shale,including failure characteristics,fracture toughness,energy dissipation and crack propagation velocity,are comprehensively compared and discussed under mode Ⅰ and mode Ⅱ fracture scenarios.First,using a newly modified fracture criterion considering the strength anisotropy of shale,the DNFBD specimen is predicted to be a robust method for true mode Ⅱ fracture of anisotropic shale rocks.Our experimental results show that the dynamic mode Ⅱ fracture of shale induces a rougher and more complex fracture morphology and performs a higher fracture toughness or fracture energy compared to dynamic mode Ⅰ fracture.The minimal fracture toughness or fracture energy occurs in the Short-transverse orientation,while the maximal ones occur in the Divider orientation.In addition,it is interesting to find that the mode Ⅱ fracture toughness anisotropy index decreases more slowly than that in the mode Ⅰ fracture scenario.These results provide significant insights for understanding the different dynamic fracture mechanisms of anisotropic shale rocks under impact loading and have some beneficial implications for the controllable shock wave fracturing technique.

文摘Recent advances in additive manufacturing have enabled the construction of metallic lattice structures with tailored mechanical and functional properties.One potential application of metallic lattice struc-tures is in the impact load mitigation where an external kinetic energy is absorbed by the deformation/crushing of lattice cells.This has motivated a growing number of experimental and numerical studies,recently,on the crushing behavior of additively produced lattice structures.The present study overviews the dynamic and quasi-static crushing behavior of additively produced Ti64,316L,and AlSiMg alloy lattice structures.The first part of the study summarizes the main features of two most commonly used additive processing techniques for lattice structures,namely selective-laser-melt(SLM)and electro-beam-melt(EBM),along with a description of commonly observed process induced defects.In the second part,the deformation and strain rate sensitivities of the selected alloy lattices are outlined together with the most widely used dynamic test methods,followed by a part on the observed micro-structures of the SLM and EBM-processed Ti64,316L and AlSiMg alloys.Finally,the experimental and numerical studies on the quasi-static and dynamic compression behavior of the additively processed Ti64,316L,and AlSiMg alloy lattices are reviewed.The results of the experimental and numerical studies of the dynamic properties of various types of lattices,including graded,non-uniform strut size,hollow,non-uniform cell size,and bio-inspired,were tabulated together with the used dynamic testing methods.The dynamic tests have been noted to be mostly conducted in compression Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar(SHPB)or Taylor-and direct-impact tests using the SHPB set-up,in all of which relatively small-size test specimens were tested.The test specimen size effect on the compression behavior of the lattices was further emphasized.It has also been shown that the lattices of Ti64 and AlSiMg alloys are relatively brittle as compared with the lattices of 316L alloy.Finally,the challenges associated with modelling lattice structures were explained and the micro tension tests and multi-scale modeling techniques combining microstructural characteristics with macroscopic lattice dynamics were recommended to improve the accuracy of the numerical simulations of the dynamic compression deformations of metallic lattice structures.

文摘Room-temperature mechanical properties of Cu50Zr40Ti10-xNix(0≤x≤4,mole fraction,%) bulk metallic glasses (BMG) with aspect ratios in the range of 1:1-2.5:1 and loading rates in the range of1×10^-5-1×10^-2s^-1were systematically investigated by room-temperatureuniaxialcompression test.In the condition of an aspect ratio of 1:1, the superplasticity can be clearly observed for Cu50Zr40Ti10BMG when the loading rate is1×10^-4s^-1, while for Cu50Zr40Ti10-xNix(x=1-3, mole fraction, %) BMGs when the loading rate is1×10^-2s^-1. The plastic strain (εp), yielding strength (σy) and fracture strength (σf) of the studied Cu-based BMGs significantly depend on the aspect ratio and the loading rate. In addition, theσyof the studied Cu-based BMGs with an aspect ratio of 1:1 is close to the σfof those with the other aspect ratios when the loading rate is1×10^-2s^-1. The mechanism for the mechanical response to the loading rate and the aspect ratiowas also discussed.

文摘Background: The cause of the adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) after fusion remains unknown. It is reported that adjacent facet joint stresses increase alter anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. This increase of stress rate may lead to tissue injury. Thus far, the load rate of the adjacent segment facet joint after fusion remains unclear. Methods: Six C2-C7 cadaveric spine specimens were loaded under tour motion modes: Flexion, extension, rotation, and lateral bending, with a pure moment using a 6° robot arm combined with an optical motion analysis system. The Tecscan pressure test system was used for testing facet joint pressure. Results: The contact mode of the facet joints and distributions of the force center during different motions were recorded. The adjacent segment facet joint forces increased faster after fusion, compared with intact conditions. While the magnitude of pressures increased, there was no difference in distribution modes before and after fusion. No pressures were detected during flexion. The average growth velocity during extension was the fastest and was significantly faster than lateral bending. Conclusions: One of the reasons for cartilage injury was the increasing stress rate of loading. This implies that ASD after fusion may be related to habitual movement before and after fusion. More and faster extension is disadvantageous for the facet joints and should be reduced as much as possible.

文摘The deformation and failure of coal and rock is energy-driving results according to thermodynamics.It is important to study the strain energy characteristics of coal-rock composite samples to better understand the deformation and failure mechanism of of coal-rock composite structures.In this research,laboratory tests and numerical simulation of uniaxial compressions of coal-rock composite samples were carried out with five different loading rates.The test results show that strength,deformation,acoustic emission(AE)and energy evolution of coal-rock composite sample all have obvious loading rate effects.The uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus increase with the increase of loading rate.And with the increase of loading rate,the AE energy at the peak strength of coal-rock composites increases first,then decreases,and then increases.With the increase of loading rate,the AE cumulative count first decreases and then increases.And the total absorption energy and dissipation energy of coal-rock composite samples show non-linear increasing trends,while release elastic strain energy increases first and then decreases.The laboratory experiments conducted on coal-rock composite samples were simulated numerically using the particle flow code(PFC).With careful selection of suitable material constitutive models for coal and rock,and accurate estimation and calibration of mechanical parameters of coal-rock composite sample,it was possible to obtain a good agreement between the laboratory experimental and numerical results.This research can provide references for understanding failure of underground coalrock composite structure by using energy related measuring methods.

文摘The split-Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB)and digital image correlation(DIC)techniques are combined to analyze the dynamic compressive failure process of coal samples,and the box fractal dimension is used to quantitatively analyze the dynamic changes in the coal sample cracks under impact load conditions with different loading rates.The experimental results show that the fractal dimension can quantitatively describe the evolution process of coal fractures under dynamic load.During the dynamic compression process,the evolution of the coal sample cracks presents distinct stages.In the crack propagation stage,the fractal dimension increases rapidly with the progress of loading,and in the crack widening stage,the fractal dimension increases slowly with the progress of loading.The initiation of the crack propagation phase of the coal samples gradually occurs more quickly with increasing loading rate;the initial cracks appear earlier.At the same loading time point,when the loading rate is greater,the fractal dimension of the cracks observed in the coal sample is greater.

文摘Tackling the problems of underground water storage in collieries in arid regions requires knowledge of the effect of water intrusion and loading rate on the mechanical properties of and crack development in coal–rock combinations. Fifty-four coal–rock combinations were prepared and split equally into groups containing different moisture contents(dry, natural moisture and saturated) to conduct acoustic emission testing under uniaxial compression with loading rates ranging from 0.1 mm/min to 0.6 mm/min. The results show that the peak stress and strength-softening modulus, elastic modulus, strain-softening modulus, and post-peak modulus partly decrease with increasing moisture content and loading rate. In contrast, peak strain increases with increasing moisture content and fluctuates with rising loading rate. More significantly, the relationship between stiffness and stress, combined with accumulated counts of acoustic emission, can be used to precisely predict all phases of crack propagation. This is helpful in studying the impact of moisture content and loading rate on crack propagation and accurately calculating mechanical properties. We also determined that the stress thresholds of crack closure, crack initiation, and crack damage do not vary with changes of moisture content and loading rate, constituting 15.22%, 32.20%, and 80.98% of peak stress, respectively. These outcomes assist in developing approaches to water storage in coal mines, determining the necessary width of waterproof coal–rock pillars, and methods of supporting water-enriched roadways, while also advances understanding the mechanical properties of coal–rock combinations and laws of crack propagation.

文摘In order to enhance the hydraulic loading rate (HLR) of a subsurface wastewater infiltration system (SWIS) used in treating domestic sewage, the intermittent operation mode was employed in the SWIS. The results show that the intermittent operation mode contributes to the improvement of the HLR and the pollutant removal rate. When the wetting-drying ratio (RwD) was 1.0, the pollutant removal rate increased by (13.6 ± 0.3)% for NH3-N, (20.7 ± 1.1)% for TN, (18.6± 0.4)% for TP, (12.2 ± 0.5)% for BOD, (10.1 ± 0.3)% for COD, and (36.2 ± 1.2)% for SS, compared with pollutant removal rates under the continuous operation mode. The pollutant removal rate declined with the increase of the HLR. The effluent quality met The Reuse of Urban Recycling Water - Water Quality Standard for Scenic Environment Use (GB/T 18921-2002) even when the HLR was as high as 10 cm/d. Hydraulic conductivity, oxidation reduction potential (ORP), the quantity of nitrifying bacteria, and the pollutant removal rate of NH3-N increased with the decrease of the RWD. For the pollutant removal rates of TP, BOD, and COD, there were no significant difference (p 〈 0.05) under different RwDS. The suggested RWD was 1.0. Relative contribution of the pretreatment and SWlS to the pollutant removal was examined, and more than 80% removal of NH3-N, TN, TP, COD, and BOD occurred in the SWIS.

文摘To investigate the influence of loading rate on rockburst in a circular tunnel under three-dimensional stress conditions,the true-triaxial tests were conducted on 100 mm×100 mm×100 mm cubic sandstone specimens with d50 mm circular perforated holes,and the failure process of hole sidewall was monitored and recorded in real-time by the microcamera.The loading rates were 0.02,0.10,and 0.50 MPa/s.The test results show that the rockburst process of hole sidewall experienced calm period,pellet ejection period,rock fragment exfoliation period and finally formed the V-shaped notch.The rockburst has a time lag and vertical stress is high when the rockburst occurs.The vertical stress at the initial failure of the hole sidewall increases with loading rate.During the same period after initial failure,the rockburst severity of hole sidewalls increased significantly with increasing loading rate.When the vertical stress is constant and maintains a high stress level,the rockburst of hole sidewall under low loading rate is more serious than that under high loading rate.With increasing loading rate,the quality of rock fragments produced by the rockburst decreases,and the fractal dimension of rock fragments increases.

文摘In this study,the effect of loading rate on shale fracture behaviors was investigated under dynamic and static loading conditions.Cracked straight through Brazilian disc(CSTBD)shale specimens were tested with a split Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB)setup and INSTRON1346 servo-testing machine under pure mode I loading conditions.During the test,the crack propagation process was recorded by high-speed(HS)camera,and the acoustic emission(AE)signal generated by the fracture was collected by acoustic emission(AE)system.At the same time,crack propagation gauge(CPG)was used to measure the crack propagation velocity of the specimen.The results show that the crack propagation velocity and fracture toughness of shale have a positive correlation with the loading rate.The relationship among the crack propagation velocity,the fracture toughness and the loading rate is established under the static loading condition.In addition,the characteristics of AE signals with different loading rates are analyzed.It is found that the AE signals generated by microcrack growth decrease with the increase of loading rates.Meanwhile,the turning point of cumulative counting moves forward as the loading rate increases,which shows that the AE signal generated by shale fracture at low loading rate mainly comes from the initiation and propagation of microcracks,while at high loading rate it mainly comes from the formation of macro large-scale cracks.The fracture mechanism that causes shale fracture toughness and crack propagation velocity to vary with loading rate is also discussed based on the analysis results of AE signals.
