本文利用有限元仿真给出了一种修正方法，并用数值仿真和试验验证了该方法的可靠性。研究表明:散体材料SHPB被动围压试验中，试样厚度远小于厚壁圆筒长度时，端部效应会导致厚壁圆筒不均匀凸出变形，计算材料的体应力-应变关系不能将厚壁圆筒应力状态简化为平面应力问题；厚壁圆筒处于弹性状态下，通过厚壁圆筒理论计算出的径向力与真实径向力存在一定比例关系，在一定范围内，折算系数与试样实时厚度呈二次函数关系。     

频繁动力扰动对围压卸载中高储能岩体的动力学影响

基于冬瓜山铜矿深部巷道围岩开挖过程中面临的高应力和频繁爆破扰动问题，利用改进的SHPB动静组合加载系统，开展了频繁动力扰动对围压卸载中高储能岩体动力学影响的研究。研究结果表明，围压卸载中的矽卡岩受到动力扰动时，其动态峰值应力和弹性模量随动力扰动次数非线性变化。围压卸载中的高储能矽卡岩受到动力扰动时会释放能量。轴压促使岩样内微裂隙轴向发育，造成岩样抵抗动力扰动能力减弱；围压减缓岩样内微裂隙轴向发育，造成岩样抵抗动力扰动能力增强。动力扰动对微裂隙扩展有促进作用，使围压卸载中的岩样由拉伸破坏向剪切破坏转变。     

Stress and fabric in granular material

It has been well recognized that, due to anisotropic packing structure of granular material, the true stress in a specimen is different from the applied stress. However, very few research efforts have been focused on quantifying the relationship between the true stress and applied stress. In this paper, we derive an explicit relationship among applied stress tensor, material-fabric tensor, and force-fabric tensor; and we propose a relationship between the true stress tensor and the applied stress tensor. The validity of this derived relationship is examined by using the discrete element simulation results for granular material under biaxial and triaxial loading conditions.     

Three-Dimensional Analytical Solution for an Axisymmetric Biharmonic Problem

In this paper, we propose a method for the solution of the axisymmetric boundary value problem for a finite elastic cylinder with assigned stress and/or displacements acting on the ends and side. The technique utilizes the Love representation, which allows for reduction of the solution of the elastic problem to the search for a biharmonic function on a cylindrical domain. In the solution method suggested here, we write the Love function with a Bessel expansion and analyze in detail the conditions under which it is possible to differentiate the expansion term by term. We show that this is possible only for a restricted class of elastic solutions. In the general case, we introduce two new auxiliary functions of the z-coordinate. In this way, we obtain the general form of the axisymmetric biharmonic function, which is discussed in relation to certain specific boundary conditions applied on the side and ends of the cylinder. We obtain an exact explicit solution of practical interest for a cylinder with free ends and assigned displacements applied to the side.     

Effect of elastomer slight compressibility

This paper is concerned with the constitutive equation for slightly compressible elastic material under finite deformations. We show that material slight compressibility can be effectively taken into account in the case of high hydrostatic pressure or highly confined material. In all other situations the application of the incompressible and nearly incompressible material theories gives practically the same results. Therefore it is of interest to consider the problem in which allowing for material slight compressibility leads to results essentially different from those obtained with help of the incompressible material model. In the present paper this difference has been demonstrated for the problem of high hydrostatic pressure causing an increase of the ‘bulk’ and ‘shear’ material moduli. The behavior of a long hollow cylinder of real material under finite deformations is analyzed. The cylinder is subjected to internal pressure and axial and circular displacements at the outer surface. This problem has been solved analytically using the small parameter method. The solution obtained predicts a decrease of the axial and circular displacements of the outer surface under fixed shear (axial and circular) forces when the internal pressure is applied.     

Experimental Investigation on Mechanical Behavior of Coarse Marble Under Six Different Loading Paths

A series of triaxial compression experiments were preformed for the coarse marble samples under different loading paths by the rock mechanics servo-controlled testing system. Based on the experimental results of complete stress-strain curves, the influence of loading path on the strength and deformation failure behavior of coarse marble is made a detailed analysis. Three loading paths (Paths I–III) are put forward to confirm the strength parameters (cohesion and internal friction angle) of coarse marble in accordance with linear Mohr-Coulomb criterion. Compared among the strength parameters, two loading paths (i.e. Path II by stepping up the confining pressure and Path III by reducing the confining pressure after peak strength) are suggested to confirm the triaxial strengths of rock under different confining pressures by only one sample, which is very applicable for a kind of rock that has obvious plastic and ductile deformation behavior (e.g. marble, chalk, mudstone, etc.). In order to investigate re-fracture mechanical behavior of rock material, three loading paths (Paths IV–VI) are also put forward for flawed coarse marble. The peak strength and deformation failure mode of flawed coarse marble are found depending on the loading paths (Paths IV–VI). Under lower confining pressures, the peak strength and Young’s modulus of damage sample (compressed until post-peak stress under higher confining pressure) are all lower compared with that of flawed sample; moreover mechanical parameter of damage sample is lower for the larger compressed post-peak plastic deformation of coarse marble. However under higher confining pressures (e.g. σ ₃?=?30 MPa), the axial supporting capacity and elastic modulus of damage coarse marble (compressed until post-peak stress under lower confining pressure) is not related to the loading path, while the deformation modulus and peak strain of damage sample depend on the difference of initial confining pressure and post-peak plastic deformation. The friction among crystal grains determines the strength behavior of flawed coarse marble under various loading paths. In the end, the effect of loading path on failure mode of intact and flawed coarse marble is also investigated. The present research provides increased understanding of the fundamental nature of rock failure under different loading paths.     

Exact solutions for radial deformations of a functionally graded isotropic and incompressible second-order elastic cylinder

We find closed-form solutions for axisymmetric plane strain deformations of a functionally graded circular cylinder comprised of an isotropic and incompressible second-order elastic material with moduli varying only in the radial direction. Cylinder's inner and outer surfaces are loaded by hydrostatic pressures. These solutions are specialized to cases where only one of the two surfaces is loaded. It is found that for a linear through-the-thickness variation of the elastic moduli, the hoop stress for the first-order solution (or in a cylinder comprised of a linear elastic material) is a constant but that for the second-order solution varies through the thickness. The radial displacement, the radial stress and the hoop stress do not depend upon the second-order elastic constant but the hydrostatic pressure and hence the axial stress depends upon it. When the two elastic moduli vary as the radius raised to the power two or four, the radial and the hoop stresses in an infinite space with a pressurized cylindrical cavity equal the pressure in the cavity. For an affine variation of the elastic moduli, the hoop stress in an internally loaded cylinder made of a linear elastic isotropic and incompressible material at the point is the same as that in a homogeneous cylinder. Here R_in and R_ou equal, respectively, the inner and the outer radius of the undeformed cylinder and R the radial coordinate of a point in the unstressed reference configuration.     

Micro-scale behavior of granular materials during cyclic loading

This study presents the micro-scale behavior of granular materials under biaxial cyclic loading for differ- ent confining pressures using the two-dimensional （2D） discrete element method （DEM）. Initially, 8450 ovals were generated in a rectangular frame without any overlap. Four dense samples having confining pressures of 15, 25, 50, and 100 kPa were prepared from the initially generated sparse sample. Numeri- cal simulations were performed under biaxial cyclic loading using these isotropically compressed dense samples. The numerical results depict stress-strain-dilatancy behavior that was similar to that observed in experimental studies. The relationship between the stress ratio and dilatancy rate is almost indepen- dent of confining pressures during loading but significantly dependent on the confining pressures during unloading. The evolution of the coordination number, effective coordination number and slip coordina- tion number depends on both the confining pressures and cyclic loading. The cyclic loading significantly affects the microtopology of the granular assembly. The contact fabric and the fabric-related anisotropy are reported, as well. A strong correlation between the stress ratio and the fabric related to contact normals is observed during cyclic loading, irrespective of confining pressures.     

Stress intensity factors around a cylindrical crack in an interfacial zone in composite materials

Axisymmetric stresses around a cylindrical crack in an interfacial cylindrical layer between an infinite elastic medium with a cylindrical cavity and a circular elastic cylinder made of another material have been determined. The material constants of the layer vary continuously from those of the infinite medium to those of the cylinder. Tension surrounding the cylinder and perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder is applied to the composite materials. To solve this problem, the interfacial layer is divided into several layers with different material properties. The boundary conditions are reduced to dual integral equations. The differences in the crack faces are expanded in a series so as to satisfy the conditions outside the crack. The unknown coefficients in the series are solved using the conditions inside the crack. Numerical calculations are performed for several thicknesses of the interfacial layer. Using these numerical results, the stress intensity factors are evaluated for infinitesimal thickness of the layer.     

A micromechanics-based elastoplastic damage model for granular materials at low confining pressure

This paper is devoted to the formulation of a micromechanics-based constitutive model for granular materials under relatively low confining pressure. The constitutive formulation is performed within the general framework of homogenization for granular materials. However, new rigorous stress localization laws are proposed. Some local constitutive relations are established under the consideration of irreversible thermodynamics. Macroscopic plastic deformation is obtained by considering local plastic sliding in a limit number of families of contact planes. The plastic sliding at each contact plane is described by a non-associated plastic flow rule, taking into account pressure sensitivity and normal dilatancy. Nonlinear elastic deformation related to progressive compaction of contacts is also taken into account. Material softening is described by involving damage process related to degradation of microstructure fabric. The proposed model is applied to some typical granular materials (sands). The numerical predictions are compared with experimental data.

Transverse isotropic poroelastic osteon model under cyclic loading

The poroelastic problem associated with a hollow cylinder under cyclic loading is solved. This cylinder models an osteon, basic unit of cortical bone. Both fluid and solid phases are supposed compressible. Solid matrix is modeled as an elastic transverse isotropic material. An explicit close-form solution for the steady state is obtained. Fluid flow distribution as a function of poroelastic properties and cyclic loading is discussed as it could influence bone remodeling. Strain rate of loading is shown to play a significant role in mass flux in the porous material.

Bifurcation in compressible elastic/plastic cylinders under uniaxial tension

The bifurcation problem of a circular cylinder of elastic/plastic material under uniaxial tension is investigated, with particular reference to the usual engineering criterion that necking is initiated when the load on the specimen reaches a maximum. The material considered is compressible, with a smooth yield surface and associated flow rule. A lower bound analysis shows that for the particular constitutive equation chosen bifurcation cannot occur under a range of loading conditions while the stress is less than a certain value which is itself slightly less than the stress at the maximum load point. Diffuse axisymmetric necking modes under the commonly assumed loading conditions of prescribed axial components of velocity and shear-free traction-rates on the ends are, however, found to be initiated always after maximum load, the delay depending on the same factors shown for an incompressible material in reference [1]. The effect of the elastic compressibility assumption is to reduce the delay for a wide range of geometries, but to increase it for very slender specimens, as compared with the incompressible case. Surface modes are also found, but at stresses of an unrealistically high order of magnitude.     

Path Independent Integral for an Elliptical Hole in a Plate under Tension for Plane Stress Deformation Theory

An exact expression is derived for a path independent integral surrounding an elliptical hole in an infinite plate with tensile tractions at infinity for plane stress loading conditions. The plate is composed of a non-work-hardening material satisfying the Tresca yield condition under proportional loading and small strain assumptions. This problem may serve as a simple classroom example for the derivation of a relationship between crack opening displacement and path independent integral for a nonlinear elastic material satisfying the Tresca yield condition.      

The Pressurized Hollow Cylinder or Disk Problem for Functionally Graded Isotropic Linearly Elastic Materials

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of material inhomogeneity on the response of linearly elastic isotropic hollow circular cylinders or disks under uniform internal or external pressure. The work is motivated by the recent research activity on functionally graded materials (FGMs), i.e., materials with spatially varying properties tailored to satisfy particular engineering applications. The analog of the classic Lamé problem for a pressurized homogeneous isotropic hollow circular cylinder or disk is considered. The special case of a body with Young"s modulus depending on the radial coordinate only, and with constant Poisson"s ratio, is examined. It is shown that the stress response of the inhomogeneous cylinder (or disk) is significantly different from that of the homogeneous body. For example, the maximum hoop stress does not, in general, occur on the inner surface in contrast with the situation for the homogeneous material. The results are illustrated using a specific radially inhomogeneous material model for which explicit exact solutions are obtained.

分级加载条件下紫色泥岩三轴蠕变特性研究

流变性质是岩石材料的重要力学特性,以紫色泥岩为例,在分级加载条件下研究了其三轴蠕变特性。采用自行研制的重力杠杆式岩石蠕变实验机,并配备三轴压力室,对紫色泥岩实施分级加载三轴蠕变实验。实验结果表明,紫色泥岩在相同轴压条件下,围压越大,瞬时弹性变形和蠕变变形越小;在相同围压条件下,轴压越大,二者变形越大。紫色泥岩的蠕变速率具有相同的变化趋势,且在相同轴压条件下,围压越大,稳定蠕变阶段的蠕变速率越不明显。另外,应力与瞬时应变线性拟合结果表明,瞬时轴向应变与轴向荷载近似成比例增长。通过分析紫色泥岩蠕变曲线变化趋势,认为采用H/M模型进行模拟较为合理。并且采用MATLAB软件非线性回归分析进行模型参数拟合,最后得到实验曲线与理论曲线的最大误差在2e-5左右。证明采用的H/M模型能较好地描述紫色泥岩的蠕变特性。
