Effect of Dry‐Wet Cycling on the Mechanical Properties of High‐Water Materials [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
As a new grouting reinforcement material, high‐water materials (HWMs) are being increasingly applied in different fields. This means that the environment in which these HWMs are employed are varied and increasingly complex. The dehydrating and saturation cycle of HWM caused by changes in the environment is referred to as the dry‐wet cycle.

The Uniaxial Creep Characteristics of Red Sandstone under Dry‐Wet Cycles [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
Water is one of the most important factors that affect the long‐term stability of geotechnical engineering structures. Rainfall often results in periodic changes in the water content in underground rock, which is subjected to alternating dry‐wet cycles. In this paper, in order to study the short‐term and long‐term mechanical properties of red sandstone

Statistical Damage Model of Altered Granite under Dry-Wet Cycles [PDF]

open access: yesSymmetry, 2019
This paper presents a new statistical damage constitutive model using symmetric normal distribution. The broken rock microbody obeyed symmetric normal distribution and the equivalent strain principle in damage mechanics. The uniaxial compression tests of samples subjected to dry-wet cycles were performed.
