Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of rock mechanical property research, and in particular relates to a method for establishing a rock elastic-plastic damage constitutive model taking into account freeze-thaw strength and compaction effects. Background Art
[0002] Freeze-thaw is a powerful weathering process that can cause a rapid decline in rock mechanical properties, seriously threatening the safe operation, stability, and durability of rock mass engineering projects in cold regions. The mechanical properties of rock under harsh climatic conditions are key indicators of the stability and safety of rock mass engineering projects. Rocks are commonly found with numerous pores and microcracks. When water in these pores freezes into ice, it expands by approximately 9%, generating frost heave pressure within the rock. This pressure gradually dissipates as the ice melts into water. Freeze-thaw exposure to rock in cold climates can cause internal damage. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles gradually accumulate this damage, leading to a rapid deterioration in rock strength and severely impacting the safety, stability, and durability of rock mass engineering and structures. Therefore, developing a freeze-thaw rock mechanics model to predict the mechanical and deformation properties of frozen-thawed rock is of vital engineering significance for the construction and stability assessment of rock mass engineering projects in cold regions.
[0003] In recent years, with the continuous development of indoor test equipment and theoretical analysis, some progress has been made in the study of the constitutive model theory of freeze-thaw rock. Many scholars have proposed statistical damage models for freeze-thaw rock based on experimental stress-strain curves and combined with statistical damage theory. However, they all have certain limitations, which are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
[0004] (1) The existing model only fits some model parameters into the equation of the number of freeze-thaw cycles, without considering the effect of freeze-thaw cycles on the initial yield and hardening process; and does not consider the effect of different freeze-thaw temperatures and freeze-thaw durations on the freeze-thaw damage of rocks;
[0005] (2) These models can only reflect the elasticity, yielding and post-peak failure stages of rocks, ignoring the initial compaction stage of rocks, resulting in large errors between the predicted values of theoretical models and experimental values in the initial stage;
[0006] (3) These models can only predict the axial strain-deviatoric stress relationship of rocks, but cannot predict the volume deformation of rocks, which is one of the important indicators reflecting rock failure.
[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a method for establishing a constitutive model of freeze-thaw rock that considers the influence of freeze-thaw strength on the initial yield and hardening stage of rock, and can reflect the compaction stage and volume deformation of freeze-thaw rock, has a wide range of applicability, and has high prediction accuracy.

[0068] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0069] like Figure 1 - Figure 13As shown, this embodiment provides a method for establishing a rock elastic-plastic damage constitutive model that takes into account freeze-thaw strength and compaction effects, including: preparing a number of rock specimens; performing a freeze-thaw test on each of the rock specimens; performing a triaxial compression test on each of the rock specimens that has undergone the freeze-thaw test, and recording the test data during the triaxial compression test, wherein the test data includes the axial stress, axial strain and radial strain of the rock specimen; drawing a stress-strain curve based on the test data, and constructing a yield function and hardening law of the rock specimen based on the freeze-thaw rock mechanics parameters; based on the elastic-plastic mechanics theory, combined with the yield function and the hardening law, establishing a rock elastic-plastic damage constitutive equation that takes into account freeze-thaw action and compaction effects; based on the elastic-plastic theory combined with the freeze-thaw rock triaxial compression test data, determining the parameter expression of the rock elastic-plastic damage constitutive model.
[0070] This embodiment discloses a method for establishing a rock elastic-plastic damage constitutive model considering freeze-thaw strength and compaction effects, which is used to theoretically predict the strength and deformation characteristics of rock after freeze-thaw effects, and includes the following steps: preparing rock specimens, performing freeze-thaw cycle tests in a freeze-thaw testing machine, until the number of freeze-thaw cycles of the rock specimen meets the set value; conducting conventional triaxial compression tests on freeze-thaw rocks, measuring and recording the axial, radial strains and axial stresses of the freeze-thaw rocks, and drawing the axial strain-deviatoric stress relationship and the radial strain-deviatoric stress relationship of the freeze-thaw rocks; obtaining the initial yield strength and compressive strength of the freeze-thaw rocks based on the deviatoric stress-axial strain curve of the freeze-thaw rocks, and establishing the yield criterion and hardening criterion of the freeze-thaw rocks; based on the theory of elastic-plastic mechanics, combined with the yield criterion and hardening criterion of the freeze-thaw rocks, deriving the rock elastic-plastic damage constitutive equation considering the freeze-thaw strength and compaction effects; using the elastic-plastic theory, combined with the deviatoric stress-axial strain curve, initial yield strength and critical yield strength of the freeze-thaw rocks, obtaining the parameter expression of the elastic-plastic constitutive model of the freeze-thaw rocks, and determining the constitutive model. The model proposed in this embodiment has clear physical meaning, a wide range of applications, and a high degree of consistency with the experimental curve, fully reflecting the initial compaction, strain hardening, and post-peak failure characteristics of rock after freeze-thaw.
[0071] The method of this embodiment proposes a yield function that takes into account the freeze-thaw effect, constructs a stress increment expression and an elastic-plastic matrix in the elastic-plastic deformation stage, introduces a compaction coefficient and a damage factor, and establishes a mechanical constitutive model that can reflect the freeze-thaw effect and post-peak softening phenomenon. The proposed constitutive equation expression is unique, the model parameters are few and are all determined through experiments, and each parameter has a clear physical meaning, thereby ensuring the uniqueness and accuracy of the solution, and at the same time having wide applicability.
[0072] The specific technical solutions are as follows:
[0073] (1) Taking the freeze-thaw damage caused by specific indoor freeze-thaw temperature and duration as the benchmark, based on the damage equivalence principle and cumulative damage theory, an equivalent relationship between the freeze-thaw damage at other freeze-thaw temperatures and durations and the benchmark freeze-thaw damage is established.
[0074] (2) According to the standards of the International Society for Rock Mechanics, cylindrical rock specimens were prepared and then subjected to multiple freeze-thaw cycle tests in a freeze-thaw testing machine until the number of freeze-thaw cycles of the rock specimens met the set value.
[0075] (3) Carry out conventional triaxial compression tests on rock specimens that meet the freeze-thaw cycle number, measure and record the axial, radial strain and axial stress of rock specimens under different freeze-thaw cycles,
[0076] (4) Draw the axial strain-deviatoric stress relationship and radial strain-deviatoric stress relationship of the frozen-thawed rock, obtain the initial yield strength and compressive strength of the rock under different freeze-thaw times and confining pressures, and establish the yield function and hardening criterion of the frozen-thawed rock material respectively.
[0077] (5) Based on the theory of elastic-plastic mechanics, combined with the yield function and hardening criterion of freeze-thaw rock, the elastic-plastic damage constitutive equation of rock considering the freeze-thaw action and compaction effect is established.
[0078] (6) Using the elastic-plastic theory, combined with the deviatoric stress-axial strain curve, initial yield strength and critical yield strength of freeze-thaw rock, the parameter expression of the elastic-plastic constitutive model of freeze-thaw rock is obtained and the constitutive model is determined.
[0079] The method can also include step (7), using the back-reflection algorithm to numerically implement the constitutive equation, comparing the test and simulation results under different freeze-thaw times, verifying the rationality of the constitutive equation and improving the model.
[0080] The freeze-thaw strength expression in step (1) is Q=NQ0, where Q is the total freeze-thaw strength, N is the number of freeze-thaw cycles, and Q0 is the unit freeze-thaw strength. α1 and α0 are the rock mechanical property degradation indices under other freeze-thaw temperature and time conditions and unit freeze-thaw times under fixed freeze-thaw temperature and time, respectively. Their values can be macroscopic mechanical indices such as peak strength and elastic modulus, or other microscopic characteristic parameters such as longitudinal wave velocity, porosity and other indicators.
[0081] The cylindrical rock specimen in step (2) should be a complete specimen without obvious defects such as cracks and holes. The ratio of the height to the diameter of the cylindrical rock specimen in step (2) should be 2.0 to 2.5, and the non-parallelism error of the two end surfaces of the cylindrical specimen shall not be greater than 0.05 mm.
[0082] The freeze-thaw method of the rock specimen in step (2) is as follows: the rock specimen is placed in a saturated container with water, the water level in the container is always higher than the rock specimen, the vacuum pressure gauge reading is 0.1 MPa, and air is pumped until no gas overflows, but the pumping time shall not be less than 4 hours. The forced saturated rock specimen is wrapped with plastic wrap and placed in a freeze-thaw machine at an ambient temperature of -20°C for freezing. After 4 hours, the frozen rock specimen is taken out and placed in water at 20°C for thawing. The thawing time is 4 hours. The above steps are a freeze-thaw cycle process, and the above steps are repeated until the number of freeze-thaw cycles meets the target value.
[0083] The method for carrying out a conventional triaxial compression test on the frozen-thawed rock in step (3) is as follows: wrap the rock specimen with a heat shrink tube and arrange axial and circumferential displacement meters around the rock, place the rock specimen to be tested at the bottom of the triaxial chamber of the rock mechanics testing machine and insert the sensor data interface into the corresponding socket on the base, lower the triaxial chamber and fill it with silicone oil. Apply lateral stress σ3 and axial stress σ1 synchronously at a loading speed of 0.05 MPa per second to a predetermined lateral stress value σ3. The lateral stress value is always maintained at a predetermined value during the test. The loading process adopts a continuous single loading method, applying axial displacement at a loading rate of 0.1 mm / min until the rock is destroyed. During the test, the axial stress value σ1, axial strain ε1, and radial strain ε3 of the rock specimen are recorded at intervals of 0.1 seconds.
[0084] In the step (4), the method for drawing the axial strain-deviatoric stress relationship and the radial strain-deviatoric stress relationship of the freeze-thaw rock is as follows: using ε1 and ε3 as the horizontal coordinates and q=σ1-σ3 as the vertical coordinate to draw the axial strain-deviatoric stress relationship and the radial strain-deviatoric stress relationship of the freeze-thaw rock.
[0085] The method for establishing the yield criterion in step (4) is: based on the q=σ1-σ3 curve, determine the initial yield strength σ of the frozen-thaw rock q , the first principal stress invariant of the rock specimen I1=σ q +2σ3, the second invariant of the deviatoric stress tensor As the horizontal and vertical coordinates, plot the initial yield stress of the freeze-thaw rock corresponding to relationship curve, and according to the Based on the shape of the curve in the meridian plane, a yield equation suitable for describing the initial yield curve of freeze-thaw rocks is proposed.
[0086] The method for establishing the hardening law in step (4) is: based on the q = σ1-σ3 ~ ε1 curve, the equivalent plastic shear strain of the rock hardening stage under different confining pressures at the same freeze-thaw times is plotted. Relationship curve, in the rock hardening stage Let γ on the relationship curve p Take different values and set γ pWhen the same value is taken, the corresponding stress value is plotted on In the meridian plane, the hardening trajectory of rock under the same number of freeze-thaw cycles and different confining pressures can be obtained. Based on the above hardening trajectory, the hardening law of freeze-thaw rock can be determined.
[0087] The specific method for deriving the rock elastic-plastic damage constitutive equation considering freeze-thaw action and compaction effect in step (5) is as follows: the total strain ε during rock deformation ij Can be decomposed into elastic strain and plastic strain Based on the yield criterion and elastic-plastic mechanics theory considering freeze-thaw cycles proposed above and the associated flow law, the elastic-plastic constitutive equation of rock considering freeze-thaw effects is derived. On this basis, the damage factor is introduced to establish an elastic-plastic constitutive equation that can reflect the softening phenomenon of freeze-thaw rock. Furthermore, the elastic modulus in the initial stage is multiplied by the compaction coefficient R to correct it, and an elastic-plastic damage constitutive model of rock considering freeze-thaw effects and compaction effects is established.
[0088] Based on the σ1-σ3~ε1 curve of freeze-thaw rocks, Curve, hardening stage curve, determine the parameter expression of the constitutive equation, and finally use FORTRAN language to digitize the constitutive model to verify and improve the constitutive equation.
[0089] This example provides a new method for accurately theoretically predicting the stress-strain response of frozen-thawed rock. This method constructs an incremental stress-strain relationship and an elastic-plastic stiffness matrix that account for freeze-thaw effects. It also introduces correction coefficients and damage factors to reflect the compaction and softening characteristics of the frozen-thaw rock deformation curve. This model has few parameters and clear physical meaning, and can be obtained through triaxial compression tests on frozen-thawed rock.
[0090] This example considers the effects of freeze-thaw cycles on rock mechanical properties and constitutive equations, introduces the number of freeze-thaw cycles into the yield equation, and reflects the effect of freeze-thaw on the initial yield and hardening process of rock. This example also introduces a damage factor to describe the post-peak softening phenomenon of freeze-thawed rock, and can quantitatively determine the macroscopic damage evolution law of freeze-thawed rock under load.
[0091] Moreover, the theoretical values calculated by the rock elastic-plastic damage constitutive model constructed in this embodiment, which takes into account freeze-thaw and compaction effects, are basically close to the experimental values, fully reflecting the influence trend of freeze-thaw cycles on rock mechanics and deformation characteristics, and can better predict the peak strain, compressive strength, and stress-strain response of rock under different freeze-thaw cycles.
[0092] The freeze-thaw rock elastoplastic damage model constructed in this embodiment can be written as a subroutine and embedded in commercial finite element software to simulate the mechanical and deformation characteristics of freeze-thaw rocks. It can also be used to simulate and analyze the stability of rock mass engineering in cold regions.
[0093] Specific implementation examples:
[0094] (1) Introduction of the concept of freeze-thaw strength. When establishing freeze-thaw damage evolution equations or constitutive models for rocks, only the relationship between rock mechanical parameters and the number of freeze-thaw cycles under fixed temperature freeze-thaw is considered, ignoring the effects of freeze-thaw temperature amplitude changes and different freeze-thaw durations on the degree of rock freeze-thaw damage. In actual rock mass engineering, freeze-thaw damage is usually caused by variable amplitude freeze-thaw temperatures. Therefore, the application of theoretical models established based on indoor freeze-thaw tests (usually carried out in a fixed freeze-thaw temperature range (-20℃~+20℃)) in actual engineering is limited. Therefore, it is urgent to establish the relationship between freeze-thaw damage intensity under fixed temperature freeze-thaw and freeze-thaw damage intensity under other freeze-thaw conditions, so as to further expand the application scope of experimental and theoretical research results under fixed temperature freeze-thaw.
[0095] Based on this, this patent proposes the concept of freeze-thaw intensity to comprehensively reflect the degree of rock damage caused by different freeze-thaw temperatures and durations. Its expression is as follows:
[0096] Q=NQ0
[0097] Where: Q is the total freeze-thaw strength, N is the number of freeze-thaw cycles, Q0 is the unit freeze-thaw strength, and its expression is as follows:
[0098]
[0099] Where α1 and α0 are rock mechanical property degradation indices under other freeze-thaw conditions and per freeze-thaw cycle at a fixed freeze-thaw temperature, respectively. These values can be macroscopic mechanical indices such as peak strength and elastic modulus, or other microscopic characteristic parameters such as longitudinal wave velocity and porosity. In this patent, only freeze-thaw tests were conducted at a fixed freeze-thaw temperature, so Q0 = 1.
[0100] (2) Rock block collection and rock specimen preparation. Rock blocks were collected from a slope of a certain project in western my country. According to the recommended standards of the International Society for Rock Mechanics, the rock blocks were processed into cylindrical specimens with a diameter of 50 mm and a height of 100 mm. Figure 3 As shown;
[0101] (3) Rock specimen homogeneity inspection. First, visually inspect all cylindrical specimens and remove those with obvious cracks or cavities. Second, perform ultrasonic testing on all specimens that pass the visual inspection. Place ultrasonic probes at both ends of the cylindrical specimen, with one end stimulating the ultrasonic wave and the other end receiving the ultrasonic wave. Record the ultrasonic wave velocity of all rock specimens and remove those with ultrasonic wave velocity that significantly deviates from the average value.
[0102] (4) Freeze-thaw test of rock specimens. Place the rock specimen in a saturated container with water. The water level in the container is always higher than the rock specimen. The vacuum pressure gauge reads 0.1 MPa. Pump air until no gas overflows, but the pumping time must not be less than 4 hours. Wrap the forced saturated rock specimen with plastic wrap and place it in a freeze-thaw machine at an ambient temperature of -20°C for freezing. After 4 hours, take out the frozen rock specimen and place it in water at 20°C for thawing. The thawing time is 4 hours. The above steps are a freeze-thaw cycle process. Repeat the above steps until the number of freeze-thaw cycles meets the target value.
[0103] (5) Rock triaxial compression test. Wrap the rock specimen with heat shrink tubing and arrange axial and circumferential displacement meters around the rock. Place the rock specimen to be tested at the bottom of the triaxial chamber of the rock mechanics testing machine and insert the sensor data interface into the corresponding socket on the base. Lower the triaxial chamber and fill it with silicone oil. Apply lateral stress σ3 and axial stress σ1 simultaneously at a loading rate of 0.05 MPa per second to the predetermined lateral stress value σ3. The lateral stress value is always maintained at the predetermined value during the test. The loading process adopts a continuous single loading method, applying axial displacement at a loading rate of 0.1 mm / min until the rock is destroyed. During the test, the axial stress value σ1, axial strain ε1, and radial strain ε3 of the rock specimen are recorded at intervals of 0.1 seconds.
[0104] (6) Calculate the volume strain ε based on the axial strain ε1 and radial strain ε3 obtained from the test records v , volume strain ε v =ε1+2ε3, where ε1 is a positive value and ε3 is a negative value. With axial strain ε1 and radial strain ε3 as the abscissa and deviatoric stress q=σ1-σ3 as the ordinate, the deviatoric stress-axial and radial stress-strain curves are plotted, as shown in Figure 4 According to the initial yield stress and peak compressive strength of the frozen-thaw rock material under different confining pressures σ3, the frozen-thaw rock material in the meridian plane under the initial yield and critical state is obtained. Relationship curve; for cylindrical specimens, I1=σ q +2σ3, according to The shape of the curve in the meridian plane, such as Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown in the figure, a linear yield equation is proposed to describe the initial yield state and critical yield state of freeze-thaw rock:
[0105]
[0106] I1=σ ii , J2=S ij S ij / 2
[0107] S ij =σ ij -σ ii δ ij / 3
[0108]
[0109] Where α(Q) is the slope of the yield curve, K(γ p , Q) is the hardening parameter, which reflects the change of the yield line slope, β is the hardening coefficient, which reflects the expansion of the yield surface in the hardening stage, ω is the damage factor, which reflects the reduction of the yield surface in the softening stage, and k(Q) is the intercept in the meridian plane of the yield curve.
