The particle-based meshfree methods provide an effective means for large deformation simulation of the slope failure. Despite the advances of various efficient meshfree algorithmic developments, the computational efficiency still limits the application of meshfree methods for practical problems. This study aims at accelerating the meshfree prediction of the slope failure through introducing an encoder-decoder model, which is particularly enhanced by the attention-mechanism. The encoder-decoder model is designed to capture the long sequence character of meshfree slope failure analysis. The discretization flexibility of meshfree methods offers an easy match between the meshfree particles and machine learning samples and thus the resulting surrogate model for meshfree slope failure prediction has a quite wide applicability. In the meantime, the embedding of the attention-mechanism into the encoder-decoder neural network not only enables a significant reduction of the number of meshfree model parameters, but also maintains the key features of meshfree simulation and effectively alleviates the information dilution issue. It is shown that the proposed encoder-decoder model with embedded attention mechanism gives a more favorable prediction on the meshfree slope failure simulation in comparison to the general encoder-decoder formalism.

The theory and methods for constructing equations (functions) of evolutionary damage and rupture of materials in the Kachanov model (creep rupture and fatigue rupture) are presented. In general, it is proved that the factorized Kachanov model is identical to the Palmgren-Miner rule, which is often not confirmed experimentally. To construct damageability functions adequate to the experimental data, new mathematical objects (potential and normalized potential) are introduced. If the entire history of changes in the damage variable is known in experiments, then the use of the potential makes it possible to construct a damageability function of any complexity without integrating the evolutionary equation (explicit method). For cases where only rupture moments are recorded in experiments, a criterion for the adequacy of the normalized potential is formulated and an implicit method for its construction is developed. It is supplemented with a recursive algorithm that generates an unlimited number of such potentials. The implicit method is illustrated by examples, following which the reader can construct a damageability equation for his material without a thorough study of the theory.

The Kaiser effect in rock acoustic emission (AE) test is the most direct manifestation of rock memory function. This article focuses on the influence of different deformation stages and different historical stress conditions on stress memory function, and conducts AE testing of rock-like specimens. It explained the stress memory function in AE testing from the perspectives of crack propagation and damage accumulation. The crack initiation stress σci and crack damage stress σcd of specimens were obtained based on the stress-strain curve method, and the different deformation stages were divided. The damage evolution coefficient D e was proposed to measure the size of the stable development range of damage based on the normalized crack initiation and crack damage stress. The historical stress in the elastic stage could be easily identified from the Kaiser effect during the reloading process, even if the time interval reached 120 hours. The Felicity effect appeared during the reloading process when the historical stress was in the stage of stable crack propagation, and the FR value showed a decreasing trend with the extension of the time interval between loading tests. The loading history in the elastic stage was a training for the AE stress memory function under complex historical stress conditions, which restored the Kaiser effect in the stage of stable crack propagation. The distribution of AE events and CT scanning results were also analyzed in the article, and the damage accumulation information characterized by both are basically consistent. The double Kaiser effect phenomenon appeared in the AE test under complex historical stress conditions, although the criterion for discriminating the AE signal at the Kaiser effect point corresponding to the lower stress remained to be further studied and verified.

3D angle interlock woven fabric(3DAWF) has great potential for impact protection. This paper investigates the ballistic mechanism of 3DAWF(5 layers of angle interlock – through the thickness) under normal and oblique impact. The full-size mesoscale model of 3DAWF under different impact directions and angles was established and systematically studied to reveal the 3DAWFs’ ballistic mechanism. The numerical studies of 3DAWF subjected to 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, and 60° oblique impacts from two impact directions along 3DAWF structure configurations were carried out. We found that 3DAWFs’ ballistic performance increases non-linearly with impact obliquity. The ballistic mechanisms change with impact directions because of 3DAWFs’ anisotropic structure. This work also demonstrates the impact damage mechanism, energy absorption evolution, and stress wave distribution of the 3DAWF under oblique high-velocity impact. The findings are constructive for the 3DAWF applicated in ballistic protection.

The paper presents the procedure for determining the factor of safety (FoS) using the strength reduction method (SRM) for the case of a concrete damage plasticity constitutive model. The SRM was originally used in a slope stability analysis and in its original form, this method was applied by reducing the shear strength of the material. Since damage in concrete occurs due to exceeding the normal stresses in the principal directions, and not due to exceeding the shear strength, this method was modified and adapted to the concrete damage plasticity constitutive model. Instead of reducing the failure surface, the parameters which describe the mechanical behavior in the case of uniaxial compression and uniaxial tension were reduced. In this way, the reduction of stress and the corresponding strain was carried out in the entire range of total strain, without changing the shape of the failure surface in the deviator plane. For the proposed methodology, a numerical algorithm was developed and implemented into the software PAK. The algorithm was verified through test examples and the obtained results were compared with analytically calculated FoS. The excellent agreement is observed between the FoS obtained by applying the proposed algorithm and the analytically calculated FoS.

Understanding the shear mechanics mechanism of bolted joints is of great significance for predicting and preventing geological disasters. Most current studies seldom consider the rheological effects of bolted joints. In this paper, a comprehensive rheological constitutive model is proposed, accounting for initial damage and damage evolution across different rheological stages and bolt characteristics. The model incorporates an elastoplastic Hooke body for instantaneous deformation, parametric nonlinear Kelvin and viscous models for attenuation and steady creep stages, and a visco-plastic model based on time-dependent shear strength for accelerated creep stage. Additionally, a bolt-rock cooperative deformation model is introduced, considering the evolution of the bolt's elastic modulus. The resulting elasto-viscoplastic constitutive model effectively describes the shear rheological behavior of bolted joints, with its validity and superiority demonstrated through comparisons with shear creep tests and the Maxwell model. This research aims to provide valuable theoretical guidance for the construction and reinforcement of rock mass engineering projects.

The present study evaluates the effects of tensile residual stresses on fatigue behaviour of ASTM A516 pressure vessel steel specimens. In this regard, fatigue specimens containing a smooth notch region are studied. A damage coupled elastic-plastic constitutive material model is developed to investigate effects of residual stresses on fatigue life. Isotropic and kinematic hardening parameters of the material are experimentally determined. Additionally, the damage model parameters are specified from fatigue experiments conducted on standard specimens in different stress ratios. Tensile residual stresses are introduced into the smooth notched specimens through employing four-point-bending method. The hole drilling technique is utilized to measure the residual stress magnitudes. The results indicate that about two third of fatigue life of the specimens is decreased due to the existed tensile residual stresses. Furthermore, fatigue crack initiation and propagation behaviour in the specimens containing residual stress are studied based on the developed continuum damage model.

Several continuum damage mechanics (CDM) modelling approaches for predicting creep deformation of tempered ferritic steels have been developed in the literature, which have evolved from efforts to extend the operability of power plant components. Few of these models, however, focus on damage assessment of ex-service states of power plant steels through the extraction of damage parameters. Furthermore, few CDM approaches leverage the high density of creep curve data available through full-field strain measurement techniques such as digital image correlation (DIC). This work uses multiple creep curves obtained from DIC computed strain data at several stresses and temperatures from individual specimens of X20CrMoV12-1 (X20) piping steel. These curves serve as input data to a modified Oruganti continuum damage mechanics (CDM) model whereby microstructural-specific damage parameters can be extracted. Good agreement is noted between CDM-extracted parameters and microstructural, creep cavity density and hardness damage indicators. Damage parameters based on subgrain growth are particularly sensitive to the ex-service state of the X20 steel. The proposed CDM approach using DIC computed creep curves is shown to be a material efficient alternative to traditional damage assessment methods of ex-service material.

Three-dimensional bidirectional angle-interlock woven (3DBAW) composites exhibit the orthogonal high modulus, which has the potential to be used in load-bearing components. 3DBAW preforms prepared using the certain and uncertain cross-sectional yarns exhibit various structural characteristics, and the mechanical properties of composites show the high variation. To investigate the effect of fabric structural stability on the elastic properties of 3DBAW composites and broaden its application, contrast analysis of quasi-static tensile properties of composite specimens was proposed, and the failure mechanism was analysed. The results showed that the high tensile initial elastic modulus of 3DBAW composites was attributed to the low curvature of load-bearing yarns. For composites with stable fabrics, the tensile process was smooth and steady owing to the uniform fiber spacing, and the tensile elastic modulus and strength show the smaller coefficient of variation. The tensile crack surfaces of composites with stable structural fabrics were regular, and making the full use of the load-bearing yarns. 3DBAW preforms with stable structure can effectively reduce the fluctuation of changes at the initial stage of loading, and the translaminar fracture and adhesive matrix failure are the main failure modes without the obvious interlaminar fracture. The results provided the support for the application of 3DBAW composite in load-bearing components.

Investigation into rock damage is of great significance for evaluating and predicting the stability of underground rock applications, such as deep mining or tunneling structures. Considering the energy dissipation properties during rock deformation, this paper proposes a novel theoretical characterization of the damage induced by compressive-shear stress and its evolution in intact rocks. The linear energy dissipation (LED) law is derived from shear stress and deformation data of rocks resulting from the preset angle shear experiment. Based on the LED law, two damage variables are separately constructed from the theoretical and experimental aspects. Several sets of experimental data are subsequently utilized to validate the two constructed damage variables. Results show that both damage variables grow first slowly and then rapidly with shear displacement or shear stress in nonlinear relations. By comparison, however, it is found that the theoretical damage variable outperforms the experimental damage variable, which can accurately reflect the stress and deformation data during progressive rock damage with favorable continuity. This study contributes to a novel theoretical approach to quantifying the pre-peak damage in intact rocks subject to compressive-shear stress.

This study contributes to a novel theoretical approach to quantifying the pre-peak damage in intact rocks subject to compressive-shear stress.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"32 1","pages":"962 - 983"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43016598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
