Understanding the damage evolution and time-dependent property of rock creep is of great significance for predicting geohazards and evaluating the long-term stability of geotechnical structures. In this study, a three-dimensional digital image correlation system was adopted to investigate the creep behavior of sandstone under the coupling action of stress and pore water pressure. The apparent strain fields, deformation characteristics of the localization zone, and micromorphology of the fracture surface were analyzed. The results demonstrated that when the applied deviatoric stress level was above σ ci (crack initial stress) or σ cd (crack damage stress), the increase in pore water pressure promoted creep deformation evidently, improved the creep rate significantly and shortened the time-to-failure of the rock obviously. In the radial strain field, the localized development of substantial microcracks on the rock surface was concentrated in the steady-state creep, while the microcracks interconnected to form macroscopic shear cracks that dominated the accelerating creep, and this damage evolution characteristic can be used as a precursor and early warning of rock creep failure. Besides, increasing the pore water pressure also would cause the divergence point of strain curves inside and outside the localization zone to appear earlier at the secondary creep, and produce a wider localization zone at the tertiary creep. The creep fracture surface of the rock was dominated by intergranular microcracks. Increasing the pore water pressure would result in the deterioration of the cemented structure and breakage of the cemented matrix more seriously, thus stimulating the generation of more microcracks.

Concrete structures are essential for shelters, storage, transportation, and defense systems. However, they are vulnerable to terrorist attacks and explosions. The most exposed component of these structures is the reinforced concrete slab, which is also the primary force-transferring member. Therefore, the present study utilizes machine learning techniques to predict the maximum vertical displacement of reinforced concrete slabs subjected to air-blast loading. This can be achieved using 11 input parameters of the slab and TNT blast to predict the maximum displacement. The dataset comprises 146 samples from various experimental and numerical blast studies on reinforced concrete slabs in the open literature. Rather than presenting the data in a tabular format, each individual data sample is transformed into an image using distinct techniques: one uses a self-similarity matrix, and the other utilizes an image generator for the tabular data. Image generation transforms tabular data into images by assigning features to pixel positions. This results in spatial dependency of the input features. Using these images, various convolutional neural networks were adopted (ResNet-18, ResNet-50, ResNet-101, EfficentNet-b0, ShuffleNet, Xception, DarkNet-53, and DenseNet-20) and trained to predict the slab maximum displacement. Most models demonstrated promising results. The performance of the models was predicted based on the root mean squared error, mean absolute error, and coefficient of determination, and the impact of input features on the maximum displacement was examined. Along with this, the initial study of the blast damage assessment on reinforced concrete slabs is explained for future work to be performed based on the proposed method.

Deep underground engineering is in a true three-dimensional stress state, and the adjustment of the three-dimensional stress state caused by engineering excavation will induce the fracture or even instability of the surrounding rock. However, three-dimensional mechanical model research suitable for the stability analysis of deep surrounding rock is very scarce. Therefore, a series of tests under different true triaxial stresses on two rocks (rhyodacite and marble) were conducted, and the characteristic strength (crack stable propagation initiation stress, crack unstable propagation initiation stress and peak strength) and deformation characteristics were further analyzed. After that, using the Lemaitre strain equivalence hypothesis and rock statistical damage theory, a new statistical damage constitutive model at true triaxial stress states was proposed, which introduced the three-dimensional strength criterion Modified Wiebols Cook to characterize the three-dimensional strength of the rock microelement. Therefore, the intermediate principal stress can be reasonably considered. The damage threshold, initial compaction effect and residual strength of the rock microelement at different true triaxial stress conditions were also considered. Then the relationships between the proposed model parameters and σ 2 and σ 3 were analyzed. Furthermore, sensitivity analysis of the influence of parameters m and F 0 in proposed model on the shape of rock stress–strain curve and peak strength was also investigated. The comparison between the results predicted by proposed model and the experimental data shows that the new model established in this study can well simulate the prepeak and postpeak deformation characteristics of rock and the intermediate principal stress effect under true triaxial stress conditions.

The debonding of solid filler powder and binder matrix is the main form of damage for composite solid propellant. This study proposes a coda wave interference (CWI) analysis method to quantitatively characterize and evaluate the internal powder debonding damage of composite solid propellant by experiment and discrete element simulation. In order to verify the validity of numerical simulation, the discrete element method (DEM) samples to simulate the powder debonding damage of solid propellant are established, and the DEM simulation and micro-CT scanning experiment are carried out. The micro-experimental and DEM results prove the efficiency and accuracy of DEM samples in modeling the damage behaviors of solid propellant specimens. Furthermore, in order to quantitatively characterize and evaluate powder debonding damage of solid propellant, using CWI method to analyze the damage states of solid propellants in the experiment and DEM simulation of tension. Two coda evaluation parameters based on different damage states are proposed, and the relationship curves of coda evaluation parameters and tensile strain are obtained. Though the analysis of the curve results of experiment and DEM simulation, the validity of CWI is demonstrated. The coda evaluation parameters can quantitatively identify and judge the accumulation process of initial damage, the appearance of micro holes and the failure point of propellant.

Accurately and conveniently acquiring the tensile fracture strength of rocks at different temperatures is vital no matter for the security or economical design of deep underground engineering projects. Extensive testing in the laboratory, assisted with fitting approaches, is the main method to obtain the high-temperature tensile fracture strength in the available literature. However, the high-temperature destruction test is difficult to conduct and requires numerous time and resources. In this work, considering the main physical mechanisms such as phase transition and thermal damage that affect the tensile fracture strength of rocks at high temperatures, theoretical models for predicting their temperature-dependent tensile fracture strength (TDTFS) are established based on the Force-Heat Equivalence Energy Density Principle. The presented models achieve great prediction on the different variation trends of tensile strength below and above the phase transition temperature, as well as the corresponding sudden change of strength. For rocks without phase transition, the presented model only needs some physical parameters tested at room temperature can get a good prediction capacity on the TDTFS. Moreover, a new theoretical characterization model of the equivalent thermal damage parameter was presented and take a comparison with the previous model. Finally, the potential applications and limitations of the TDTFS model are further discussed. The application threshold of the presented TDTFS models is relatively low, and they may therefore be suitable as a method for providing a rapid and preliminary evaluation of strength at a large temperature range for rock engineering.

In this paper, a resilience assessment framework for microencapsulated self-healing cementitious composites is proposed based on a micromechanical damage-healing model. A 3D micromechanical analytical model is constructed to analyze the performance evolution during the damage-healing process of self-healing concrete. The resilience assessment of microencapsulated self-healing concrete is defined by virtue of the residual stiffness, self-healing effect on stiffness and damage cumulative on stiffness, which corresponds to three main features of resilience; namely, the robustness, recoverability and adaptability. The assessment results indicate that the release of healing agents within microcapsules and healing process of extended microcracks allows the microencapsulated self-healing concrete to have higher resilience than conventional concrete. Moreover, a parameter sensitivity analysis is conducted to investigate the influence of the healing efficiency, the applied initial damage and the fracture toughness of the repaired microcrack on resilience of microencapsulated self-healing concrete. The results indicate that higher healing efficiency and applied initial damage leads to high resilience, and fracture toughness of the repaired microcrack makes less difference to the results. The findings of this paper lay a theoretical foundation for the resilience design of self-healing material layer of underground structures.

In the excavation of water-related underground projects such as hydropower and energy reserves, the surrounding rock surfers complex stress path and stress state redistribution, resulting in damage and failure under the hydro-mechanical coupling condition. However, the rock hydro-mechanical coupling characteristics under complex stress paths are unclear and corresponding theoretical models are scarce. In this study, a series of tests such as triaxial compression, unloading confining pressure and cyclic loading and unloading were carried out to study the effects of different stress paths, stress levels and seepage pressure on rock deformation, strength, failure and permeability. Based on test results, the damage evolutions under three different testing paths were analyzed, a new seepage-stress coupling statistical damage model which can better simulate the compaction stage is proposed. The prediction results of the proposed model under different stress paths are in good agreement with the experimental results. Under different stress paths, the fitting relationship between parameters R0 and n and σeff is similar and has good correlation.

The creep process is a life-limiting degradation mechanism for many parts. Consequently, it should have been considered throughout the design process. This study aimed to assess the creep curve of Inconel 718 by designing a fixed blade profile. The finite element model has been done using ABAQUS software. The temperature distribution of the vane was calculated to assess the thermal stress on the vane. For temperature analysis, the film subroutine code was written. The creep life prediction model was evaluated using creep subroutine. This model included an entropy model based on the Boltzmann theory and continuum damage mechanics. Stress and temperature were applied at a range from 100 to 900 MPa and from 620 to 800°C, respectively. Finally, an accumulation damage parameter was computed. In this investigation, all three parts of the creep curve can be achieved simultaneously. There was good agreement between the simulations performed on a vane based on this method and the samples studied in previous research.

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.

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.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47694590","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}
