Analytical Methodology to Determine Thermally Induced Soil Deformation From Laboratory Data

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 16, Page 5868-5890, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Experimental laboratory investigations underlie most of the knowledge about the mechanics of soils under non‐isothermal conditions and their thermally induced deformation. Despite advances, the understanding of thermally induced deformation of soils remains inconsistent, hindering the development of a coherent framework that can advance ...

Effects of Ambient Moisture and Large‐Strain Dynamic Preloading on the Dynamic Properties of the EAC‐1A Regolith Simulant

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 16, Page 5701-5711, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The EAC‐1A lunar mare simulant, a silty sand, was selected by the European Astronaut Center (EAC) for use in the LUNA analogue facility's lunar simulation testbed. Its stress‐ and strain‐dependent shear modulus and damping ratio were determined via resonant column testing on specimens prepared either from ambient moisture material or oven ...

A discrete approach for modelling the permeability evolution of granite under triaxial and true-triaxial stress conditions

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science
Abstract In deep underground engineering, modelling the seepage characteristics of rock masses under complex stress conditions is crucial for the safe construction and stable operation of a project. The permeability of the rock mass is not only controlled by its internal pore structure but is also closely related to the deformation and ...

An Anisotropic Constitutive Model for Crushable Geomaterials Based on Non‐Stationary Critical State Line Concept

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 16, Page 5919-5935, November 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper, the dependencies of granular soil behaviour on particle crushing and fabric anisotropy are formulated within a novel model based on bounding surface plasticity theory enriched by the non‐stationary critical state line (NCSL) concept.

Comparison of Mesoscale Crack Advance and Process Zone Element Approaches for Simulating Ductile Crack Trajectories in Steel

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 4850-4862, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Rigorous application of continuum damage mechanics (CDM) models coupled with crack propagation schemes can predict crack branching or zigzag trajectories near the crack tip, even when the macroscopic crack growth is straight. This arises from oscillations in the local damage field and is consistent with experimental observations of ductile ...

An Improved True Triaxial Hoek–Brown Strength Criterion

工程科学与技术, 2023
Hoek–Brown strength criterion has been widely used in rock and rock mechanics analysis, rock slope stability analysis, rock tunnel design, and other fields, but the conventional Hoek–Brown strength criterion does not consider the influence of ...
