Mesoscopic Damage Evolution of Water-Bearing Mudstone Under Low-Strain-Rate Cyclic Dynamic Loading: A Particle-Flow Simulation Study

Groundwater-related weakening and repeated low-strain-rate disturbances can jointly affect the long-term stability of soft surrounding rock. In this study, a PFC3D model was developed by combining a cumulative residual-strain damage variable with a Weibull statistical damage variable. Water effects were represented ind...

Deformation and Failure Characteristics of Three Sandstone Types Under True Triaxial Stress With a Fixed Lateral Stress Difference

This study conducts true triaxial compression tests on three types of sandstone under a constant intermediate principal stress of σ 2  = 28 MPa. The stresses applied to the X ‐direction surfaces are progressively increased while their difference remains fixed at Δ σ  = 3 MPa. Strength, deformation, failure m...

Study on the damage evolution of red-bed soft rock in foundation pits under the coupled influence of drying-wetting cycles and cyclic disturbance

Taking argillaceous sandstone collected from foundation pits as the research object, laboratory tests including drying-wetting cycles, uniaxial compression, cyclic disturbance, and acoustic emission (AE) monitoring were conducted to investigate the deterioration and fatigue damage evolution laws. The results show tha...

Study on Acoustic Emission Response and Failure Characteristics of Rock–Proppant–Rock Composite Constructions Under Uniaxial Compression

To reveal the bearing and instability mechanisms after filling proppants in the blasting pressure-relief fracture, four types of proppant-containing sandstone composite construction with interface inclinations of 0°, 4°, 8°, and 12° were prepared. A uniaxial compression test was conducted by combining Acoustic Emission...

Degradation Behavior and Damage Evolution Model of Sandstone under Coupled Stress-Temperature-Chemical Action

Seepage from water-rich strata and persistent roof water inflow during coal mining can substantially weaken the mechanical properties of coal and rock masses. Elevated in situ stress and geothermal temperature in deep roadways further accelerate deterioration and increase the risk of engineering instability. In this...

Lithology-Dependent Fracture Propagation in Ultra-Large True-Triaxial Hydraulic-Fracturing Experiments

Tight reservoirs commonly exhibit low permeability and pronounced lithological heterogeneity, resulting in complex interactions among far-field stress, local structural weakness, and fluid-driven fracture propagation. In this study, four non-replicated 2 m × 2 m × 1 m physical-model specimens representing tight gluteni...
