Slit tube responses and rock fracture characteristics in slit charge blasting under high in situ stress

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In this article, the finite element method‐smoothed particle hydrodynamics adaptive coupling algorithm is applied to numerically simulate and analyze the dynamic response of the slit tube and the crack propagation under high in situ stress. The dynamic response of the slit tube mainly exhibits radial response in the vertical direction of the slit and ...

Investigation of the failure characteristics of fissure tunnels under dynamic and static combinations

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This article aims to investigate the dynamic fracture response of fractured tunnel models under zero geological stress through physical experiments and numerical simulations. It further simulates the dynamic fracture characteristics of fractured tunnel models under geological stress ranging from 0 to 2.5 MPa using the numerical software AUTODYN ...

Failure characteristics and the energy criterion of rock with a through‐going joint under true‐triaxial unloading conditions: Insights from the DEM model

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The rock failure mode is significantly influenced by the contributing factors, such as the joint inclination, the initial confining pressure, and the unloading point. We found six typical rock failure modes after a large number of numerical tests. Abstract Excavation unloading damages rock masses, with preferential failure along geological defects in ...

Development of a biaxial tensile test fixture for reinforced thermoplastic composites

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2007
A new mechanism for biaxial tension tests was developed for loading an in-plane reinforced composite laminate or any injection-molded polymeric specimen simultaneously in two principal directions. This mechanism can be adapted to any uniaxial tension test machine and, thereby, it can reduce the cost of conducting tests on expensive dedicated machines ...
