A generalized nonlinear three-dimensional failure criterion based on fracture mechanics

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2023
Based on fracture mechanics theory and wing crack model, a three-dimensional strength criterion for hard rock was developed in detail in this paper. Although the basic expression is derived from initiation and propagation of a single crack, it can be ...

Experimental investigation on the deformation characteristics of granular materials under drained rotational shear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rotational shear is the type of loading path where samples are subjected to cyclic rotation of principal stress directions while the magnitudes of principal stresses are maintained constant.

A novel elastoplastic model for Yunnan sandstone under poly-axial loading

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2023
The lack of understanding of plastic hardening (softening) laws, especially under anisotropic stress conditions, results in inappropriate geotechnical management.

A laboratory study of anisotropic geomaterials incorporating recent micromechanical understanding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper presents an experimental investigation revisiting the anisotropic stress–strain–strength behaviour of geomaterials in drained monotonic shear using hollow cylinder apparatus. The test programme has been designed to cover the effect of material

Effects of Principal Stress Direction and Intermediate Principal Stress on Undrained Shear Behavior of Sand

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 1998
ABSTRACT Undrained monotonic loading triaxial compression and extension tests were conducted on Toyoura sand. It was found that the shear behavior was more contractive and softer in triaxial extension than in triaxial compression. This difference suggests that the stress conditions, such as the direction of the principal stress and the magnitude of ...

Analysis of plastic zones in surrounding rocks around a circular tunnel considering the effect of intermediate principal stress and heterogeneity [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
Based on a modified Mohr-Coulomb criterion with a non-uniform coefficient, a calculation method of plastic zone boundary of surrounding rocks in a circular tunnel in non-uniform stress field is established.

Focal mechanisms in the southern Aegean from temporary seismic networks – implications for the regional stress field and ongoing deformation processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The lateral variation of the stress field in the southern Aegean plate and the subducting Hellenic slab is determined from recordings of seismicity obtained with the CYCNET and EGELADOS networks in the years from 2002 to 2007.

Three-dimensional DEM investigation of the stress-dilatancy relation of grain-cementing type methane hydrate-bearing sediment

open access: yesPetroleum, 2021
In this study, the Discrete Element Method (DEM) was employed to investigate numerically the effects of hydrate cementation and intermediate principal stress on the stress-dilatancy relation of grain-cementing type methane hydrate-bearing sediment (MHBS)

Bond–slip Behavior of Fiber-reinforced Polymer/concrete Interface in Single Shear Pull-out and Beam Tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
It has been assumed that the fiber-reinforced polymer/concrete interface is subjected to in-plane shear condition when intermediate crack debonding failure occurs.
