Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of freeze-thaw rock measurement technology, specifically to a method for obtaining the shear strength of the ice-rock interface. Background Technology

[0002] Measuring the shear strength of the ice-rock interface is of great significance for engineering in cold regions, especially for rock slope collapse and tunnel frost heave cracking in high-altitude and cold areas. The ice-rock interface refers to the interface between ice and rock. The shear strength of the ice-rock interface is an important geotechnical parameter in high-altitude and cold regions.

[0003] However, there are currently no experimental studies specifically designed for ice-rock interface strength, and parameters related to the shear strength of the ice-rock interface are extremely scarce. Obtaining ice-rock interface samples in the field is extremely difficult. Under field conditions, ice-rock interface samples may melt or break due to limitations in field conditions and sampling equipment, making it virtually impossible to obtain ice-rock interface shear strength parameters in the field. Furthermore, measuring the shear strength of the ice-rock interface in the laboratory is subject to strict limitations on sample preparation, loading season temperature, experimental equipment, and operation, making it extremely difficult to obtain the shear strength of the ice-rock interface. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a method for obtaining the shear strength of the ice-rock interface, which solves the problem that obtaining the shear strength parameters of the ice-rock interface through field experiments is difficult due to limitations in field conditions and sampling equipment.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0006] This invention provides a method for obtaining the shear strength of the ice-rock interface, comprising the following steps:

[0007] Obtain the length and height of the rough interface between ice and rock, the roughness coefficient of the rock joint surface, the freezing temperature, the uniaxial compressive strength of ice, the normal stress of the ice-rock interface, and the uniaxial compressive strength of rock.

[0008] The shear stress generated by the bonding effect of the ice-rock interface is obtained based on the length and height of the rough interface and the freezing temperature.

[0009] Based on the freezing temperature, the uniaxial compressive strength of ice, the normal stress at the ice-rock interface, and the uniaxial compressive strength of rock, the shear stress generated at the ice-rock interface that hinders sliding is obtained.

[0010] The shear strength of the ice-rock interface is obtained based on the shear stress generated by the bonding effect at the ice-rock interface and the shear stress generated by the ice-rock interface hindering sliding.

[0011] In some alternative solutions, determining the shear stress at the ice-rock interface that hinders sliding, based on the freezing temperature, the uniaxial compressive strength of the ice, the normal stress at the ice-rock interface, and the uniaxial compressive strength of the rock, includes:

[0014] In some alternative solutions, according to the formula Determine the internal friction angle of ice. φ ,in, This is the freezing temperature. The absolute zero is 273.1 K. e is the base of the natural logarithm.

[0015] In some alternative solutions, according to the formula The shear stress generated at the ice-rock interface that hinders sliding was calculated. p ,in, φ Let be the internal friction angle of ice. The normal stress at the ice-rock interface. JRC The roughness coefficient of the rock joint surface. Ice surface strength Rock joint surface strength , This refers to the uniaxial compressive strength of ice. It represents the uniaxial compressive strength of the rock.

[0016] In some alternative solutions, the uniaxial compressive strength It is calculated based on empirical formulas or measured by uniaxial compressive strength tests.

[0017] In some alternative solutions, the empirical formula is: ,in T ( k () represents the freezing temperature.

[0018] In some alternative solutions, the uniaxial compressive strength of the rock is obtained by matching the rock type or by measuring the uniaxial compressive strength through a test.

[0019] In some alternative solutions, the method of obtaining the shear stress generated by the bonding effect of the ice-rock interface based on the length of the rough interface, the height of the rough interface, and the freezing temperature includes:

[0020] According to the formula The shear stress generated by the bonding effect at the ice-rock interface was calculated. c , The length of the rough interface between the ice and rock surfaces. For rough interface height, This represents the difference between the freezing temperature and zero degrees Celsius.

[0021] In some alternative solutions, according to the formula The shear strength of the ice-rock interface was calculated. ,in, p The shear stress generated at the ice-rock interface hinders sliding. c This refers to the shear stress generated by the bonding effect at the ice-rock interface.

[0022] In some alternative approaches, the normal stress at the ice-rock interface is taken from the rock geostress.

[0023] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: The method described in this application only requires the length and height of the rough interface between the ice and rock surfaces, the roughness coefficient of the rock joint surface, the freezing temperature, the uniaxial compressive strength of the ice, the normal stress of the ice-rock interface, and the uniaxial compressive strength of the rock to quickly calculate the corresponding interfacial shear strength. The shear stress generated by the bonding effect of the ice-rock interface is obtained based on the length, height, and freezing temperature of the rough interface; and the shear stress generated by the ice-rock interface hindering sliding is obtained based on the freezing temperature, the uniaxial compressive strength of the ice, the normal stress of the ice-rock interface, and the uniaxial compressive strength of the rock. Finally, the shear strength of the ice-rock interface is obtained based on the shear stress generated by the bonding effect and the shear stress generated by the ice-rock interface hindering sliding. This allows for the rapid on-site determination of the ice-rock interface shear strength parameters based on relevant parameters, serving cold-region engineering projects. It eliminates the need to obtain ice-rock interface samples under on-site conditions. Furthermore, comparison of theoretical calculation results and experimental data reveals that the error between the theoretical calculation results and experimental data is very small, making them suitable as a basis for theoretical calculations.

[0043] The interfacial element force can be replaced by the strength of ice in the transition zone at the interface. Nix and Gao obtained the shear strength of the mesoscale element based on gradient plasticity theory and dislocation theory of material microstructure. The shear stress generated by bonding can be expressed by the shear strength of the mesoscale element.

[0058] The shear stress at the interface that hinders sliding is mainly calculated using the Mohr-Coulomb principle:

[0068]

[0069] In the formula, JRC is the roughness coefficient of the rock joint surface.

[0070] The internal friction angle of ice is related to temperature and can be represented by two components:

[0071]

[0072] The increase in internal friction angle at a certain freezing temperature is temperature-dependent and can be expressed as:

[0073]
