Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of rock explosion characteristic testing, and more particularly to a method and system for testing rock and composite material explosion impact characteristics using multivariable coupling control. Background Art

[0002] Rocks and composite materials show significant commonalities in explosion impact property tests: both are typical inhomogeneous materials, exhibiting nonlinear mechanical responses and multi-mode failure behaviors under explosion impact loads, and the dynamic processes involve energy transfer and force-heat-damage coupled evolution from microstructure to macroscale.

[0003] At the application level, defense, military, energy development, and infrastructure applications place stringent demands on the safety and reliability of materials under extreme loads, pushing testing beyond single loading conditions to complex environments such as high ground stress, high temperature, and multi-directional impact. Technically, traditional single testing methods struggle to capture cross-scale failure mechanisms and multi-field coupling effects, prompting the evolution of testing systems toward a strategy of "multi-dimensional loading (planar / three-dimensional stress states) - multi-scale characterization (from mineral grains / fiber filaments to structural components) - and multi-technical integration (combining experimental testing with numerical simulation and machine learning)." Simultaneously, innovations in material design concepts are forcing testing technology to push boundaries, requiring precise quantification of interface properties, component sensitivity, and failure thresholds under complex load paths to support the development of high-performance explosion-resistant materials and the safety assessment of major projects.

[0004] For example, the invention patent publication number CN106546481B discloses a method for testing the mechanical properties of rock-like materials. The main steps are: first, prepare a rock-like material test specimen; perform tensile and shear tests on specimens of different sizes to obtain a specimen containing a complete failure section; then divide the specimen into several scanning specimens according to the specifications of the scanning electron microscope; scan the scanning specimens with an electron microscope to obtain microscopic morphologies of the failure section at different magnifications, which serve as identification points for the tensile stress and shear stress of the failure section; then scan the same material specimen under any load condition with an electron microscope; and by matching the identification points on the failure section, obtain the stress distribution of the failure section under the corresponding load conditions. Compared with the prior art, the present invention adds multi-walled carbon nanotubes during the specimen preparation process, eliminating the need for metal film spraying during electron microscope scanning, thus avoiding contamination of the specimen section and making the test more convenient and accurate.

[0005] For example, the invention patent publication number CN117538377B discloses a device and method for testing the dynamic characteristics of synergistic suppression of combustible explosion release by rapidly responding to multiple parameters. The device includes a visualization explosion system, an explosion suppression system, a fire arresting system, an ignition system, an air supply system, a powder spraying system, an explosion venting system, a pressure acquisition system, a temperature acquisition system, a high-speed infrared acquisition system, an image acquisition system, a schlieren acquisition system, an oil bath heating system, a synchronous control system, and a program control and data acquisition system. The invention utilizes rapid-response explosion suppression equipment to study the performance and dynamic characteristics of rapidly responding fire arresting and explosion suppression synergistic suppression of gas / dust explosion release under the influence of multiple parameters. By studying the dynamic characteristics of synergistic suppression of combustible explosion release by rapidly responding to multiple parameters and its explosion suppression performance test device, the invention fills a gap in the field of rapid-response explosion suppression synergistic suppression testing devices and technologies for gas-dust explosions.

[0006] The above disclosed technical solutions have at least the following technical problems:

[0007] In numerical simulations, existing rock explosion characteristic testing methods generally ignore the refinement and encryption of simulation grids, especially the implementation of targeted grid refinement at key locations such as the explosion action area and rock fracture development zones. This makes it difficult for the model to accurately capture the local stress concentration, material damage and other microscopic mechanical behaviors of rocks under explosion loads.

[0008] In addition, thermal effects, as an indispensable influencing factor in the explosion process, have not been fully considered. The high temperature generated by the explosion will significantly change the thermodynamic parameters of the rock, inducing a strong coupling of thermal stress and mechanical response. However, existing methods often ignore the dynamic interaction process between the temperature field and the stress field, resulting in the inability to fully reveal the crack initiation, expansion and energy dissipation mechanism of the rock under the high temperature and high pressure coupling environment.

[0009] The above two deficiencies together cause the simulation results to deviate from the actual explosion effects, making it difficult to accurately reflect the multi-field coupled dynamic response characteristics of rock materials under complex explosion loads.

[0010] In view of the above problems, the present invention proposes a solution. Summary of the Invention

[0011] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method and system for testing the explosion impact characteristics of rocks and composite materials with multivariable coupling control.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the first grid is specifically obtained by: obtaining the thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity and thermal expansion coefficient of the rock material; according to the thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity, obtaining the range of the heat-affected zone based on the heat conduction equation; according to the thermal expansion coefficient, obtaining the thermal stress field distribution based on the thermoelasticity equation; according to the thermal stress field distribution, based on the adaptive finite element method, encrypting the heat-affected zone of the initial grid to obtain the first grid.

[0073]

[0074] Where, is the grid size of the i-th layer, is the first layer grid size, is the gradient factor that controls the change of grid size.

[0075] It should be noted that the explosion hole area refers to the area where the rock material is deformed due to the explosion, including the explosion center area and the explosion wave propagation area.

[0100] Table 1 shows the comparison between the simulation results and experimental data of a certain experiment in this embodiment.

[0101] Table 1

[0102]

[0103] The RHT model (Riedel-Hillmeier-Thoma constitutive model) is a core model for describing the mechanical behavior of quasi-brittle materials such as rock and concrete under dynamic loads such as impact and explosion. This model, based on an improved HJC model, accurately characterizes the correlation between the strain type and stress state of the material. It also couples the strain rate effect with the damage accumulation mechanism, effectively simulating the plastic deformation, crack propagation, and failure process of the material under high strain rates. Its core advantage lies in its consideration of anisotropic damage evolution under complex stress paths. It is particularly adept at simulating rock response under extreme conditions such as cyclic loading and blasting loading. For example, it addresses the energy superposition law of double-hole blasting, the optimization of pre-splitting blasting hole spacing, and the crack propagation pattern of cyclic blasting.

[0104] The coefficient of thermal expansion is a physical quantity that characterizes the change in volume or length of an object due to temperature changes. The coefficient of thermal expansion is very critical to the practical application of materials. Considering the coefficient of thermal expansion of materials can help avoid structural deformation and damage caused by temperature changes. For example, in engine components working in high-temperature environments, or building structures that generate thermal stress due to temperature changes, the coefficient of thermal expansion is a factor that needs to be considered.

[0105] Thermoelasticity equations are a set of mathematical equations that describe the coupled interaction between heat and elasticity. They comprehensively consider the relationship between an object's elastic deformation and temperature changes. In thermoelasticity theory, an object's elastic properties are temperature-dependent. Temperature changes cause thermal expansion or contraction, which in turn generates thermal stress. Thermoelasticity equations quantitatively characterize this coupled effect of thermal and mechanical behavior. They are crucial for understanding and predicting the mechanical response of materials in thermal environments.

[0106] The adaptive finite element method (AFM) is a numerical method used to improve computational accuracy and efficiency in finite element analysis. Based on the traditional finite element method, it dynamically adjusts the finite element mesh based on the characteristics of the problem being solved and the error estimate of the computational results. Specifically, the mesh is refined in areas with large errors and appropriately coarsened in areas with small errors. While ensuring computational accuracy, the AFM rationally allocates computing resources, avoiding overcomputation in unnecessary areas. This significantly improves computational efficiency, effectively solving complex engineering and scientific problems, and providing a more reliable analytical tool for dealing with complex situations such as nonlinearity and large deformations.

[0107] The h-adaptive refinement method is a key technique in the adaptive finite element method (FEM). Based on finite element analysis, this method refines or coarsens the finite element mesh based on error estimates of the calculation results. This method refines the mesh in areas with large errors within the calculation region, while appropriately reducing the mesh size in areas with smaller errors to improve computational accuracy. In practical applications, this method is particularly suitable for solving problems with highly localized features and is an effective means of improving the efficiency and accuracy of FEM calculations.

[0108] In the field of rock material explosion analysis, the Navier-Stokes equations are a crucial tool for describing the movement of fluids (such as air) surrounding rock and within its pores during an explosion. These equations account for factors such as fluid viscosity, pressure gradients, and inertial forces. They effectively describe the propagation, reflection, and refraction of shock waves generated at the moment of an explosion within a fluid medium, as well as the complex mechanical behavior of fluid-rock interactions. For example, they describe the influence of fluids on rock fragmentation morphology and crack propagation during rock fragmentation under explosive shock. In rock material explosion analysis, they provide a critical theoretical foundation and analytical tools for studying explosion effects, assessing the stability of rock structures under explosive conditions, and optimizing blasting strategies.

[0109] The wave equation refers to the wave equation for explosive shock waves. It is a mathematical expression that describes the propagation of explosive shock waves in a medium. It comprehensively considers physical properties such as the medium's density, elastic modulus, and wave velocity, and can accurately characterize phenomena such as shock wave propagation, reflection, refraction, and energy dissipation. In the field of explosive engineering, this equation can be used to predict the effects of shock waves on structures. Solving and analyzing the wave equation helps study the dynamic response of materials under shock waves and explore the mechanisms of material damage, deformation, and failure. It is a key tool for understanding and mastering the physical processes of explosive shock waves.

[0110] In material strength distribution analysis, the Weibull statistical model characterizes the probabilistic characteristics of material strength through a two-parameter probability distribution (the shape parameter is the Weibull modulus, and the scale parameter is the characteristic strength). Its probability density function describes the probability of occurrence of different strength values, while the survival function corresponds to the material's reliability (probability of not failing) under a specific stress. This model is suitable for modeling material strength data and can quantify the dispersion and average level of the strength distribution through parameter estimation. This model can then be used to predict the probability of failure of a material under a given stress, assess structural reliability, or optimize material design. It is a core tool for analyzing strength distribution and reliability in materials science.

[0111] The Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) is a numerical calculation method developed from the traditional FEM. It overcomes the limitations of displacement continuity in the traditional FEM. By introducing special shape functions to describe the singularities at the crack tip and the discontinuities along the crack surface, it eliminates the need for continuous re-meshing as the crack propagates and effectively simulates dynamic processes such as crack initiation and propagation. The XFEM exhibits unique advantages, enabling more accurate prediction of structural failure modes and serving as an important tool for resolving crack-related issues.

[0112] Error estimation (Zienkiewicz-Zhu) is a key error assessment method in finite element analysis. It constructs a more accurate reference solution based on the finite element solution and estimates the error by calculating the difference between the finite element solution and the reference solution. This method effectively assesses the accuracy of finite element calculation results. Through a posteriori error estimation, it provides a basis for determining whether the finite element mesh needs to be refined and for optimizing the mesh. This improves the accuracy of the finite element solution, making the finite element analysis results more accurate and reliable, and providing a more valuable reference for problem solving.
