In order to study the mechanical properties of rock salt, triaxial compression tests under different temperatures and confining pressure are carried out on rock salt specimens, the influence of temperature and confining pressure on the mechanical properties of rock salt was studied. The results show that the temperature has a deteriorative effect on the mechanical properties of rock salt. With the increase of temperature, the peak stress of rock salt decreases visibly; the plastic deformation characteristics become much obvious; the internal friction angle increases; while the cohesion strength decreases. With the increase of confining pressure, the peak stress and peak strain of rock salt will increase under the same temperature. Based on the test data, the Duncan-Chang constitutive model was modified, and the modified Duncan-Chang rock salt constitutive model considering the effect of temperature and confining pressure was established. The stress-strain curve calculated by the modified model was compared with the stress-strain curve obtained from the test. The close match between the test results and the model prediction suggests that the modified Duncan-Chang constitutive model is accurate in describing the behavior of rock slat under different confining pressure and temperature conditions.

Rocks undergoing repeated loading and unloading over an extended period, such as due to earthquakes, human excavation, and blasting, may result in the gradual accumulation of stress and deformation within the rock mass, eventually reaching an unstable state. In this study, a CNN-CCM is proposed to address the mechanical behavior. The structure and hyperparameters of CNN-CCM include Conv2D layers × 5; Max pooling2D layers × 4; Dense layers × 4; learning rate=0.001; Epoch=50; Batch size=64; Dropout=0.5. Training and validation data for deep learning include 71 rock samples and 122,152 data points. The AI Rock Constitutive Model learned by CNN-CCM can predict strain values(ε₁) using Mass (M), Axial stress (σ₁), Density (ρ), Cyclic number (N), Confining pressure (σ₃), and Young's modulus (E). Five evaluation indicators R², MAPE, RMSE, MSE, and MAE yield respective values of 0.929, 16.44%, 0.954, 0.913, and 0.542, illustrating good predictive performance and generalization ability of model. Finally, interpreting the AI Rock Constitutive Model using the SHAP explaining method reveals that feature importance follows the order N > M > σ₁ > E > ρ > σ₃.Positive SHAP values indicate positive effects on predicting strain ε₁ for N, M, σ₁, and σ₃, while negative SHAP values have negative effects. For E, a positive value has a negative effect on predicting strain ε₁, consistent with the influence patterns of conventional physical rock constitutive equations. The present study offers a novel approach to the investigation of the mechanical constitutive model of rocks under cyclic loading and unloading conditions.

Rock brittleness, which is closely related to the failure modes, plays a significant role in the design and construction of many rock engineering applications. However, the brittle-ductile failure transition is mostly ignored by the current statistical damage constitutive model, which may misestimate the failure strength and failure behaviours of intact rock. In this study, a new statistical damage model considering rock brittleness is proposed for brittle to ductile behaviour of rocks using brittleness index (BI). Firstly, the statistical constitutive damage model is reviewed and a new statistical damage model considering failure mode transition is developed by introducing rock brittleness parameter-BI. Then the corresponding damage distribution parameters, shape parameter m and scale parameter F₀, are expressed in terms of BI. The shape parameter m has a positive relationship with BI while the scale parameter F₀ depends on both BI and ε_e. Finally, the robustness and correctness of the proposed damage model is validated using a set of experimental data with various confining pressure.

Although the evaluation of the mechanical properties and behavior of discontinuous rock masses is very important for the design of underground openings, it has always been considered the most difficult problem. One of the difficulties in describing the rock mass behavior is assigning the appropriate constitutive model. This limitation may be overcome with the progress in discrete element software such as PFC, which does not need the user to prescribe a constitutive model for rock mass. Instead, the micro-scale properties of the intact rock and joints are defined and the macro-scale response results from those properties and the geometry of the problem. In this paper, a $30m{\times}30m{\times}30m$ jointed rock mass of road tunnel site was analyzed. A discrete fracture network was developed from the joint geometry obtained from core logging and surface survey. Using the discontinuities geometry from the DFN model, PFC simulations were carried out, starting with the intact rock and systematically adding the joints and the stress-strain response was recorded for each case. With the stress-strain response curves, the mechanical properties of discontinuous rock masses were determined and compared to the results of empirical methods such as RMR, Q and GSI. The values of Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio and peak strength are almost similar from PFC model and Empirical methods. As expected, the presence of joints had a pronounced effect on mechanical properties of the rock mass. More importantly, the mechanical response of the PFC model was not determined by a user specified constitutive model.

암반 내에 존재하는 절리의 분포 양상을 현실적으로 반영할 수 있는 개별요소해석에서, 절리의 거동을 모사하는 구성방정식의 적절한 선택이 해석결과에 미치는 영향은 매우 크다. 본 연구에서는 절리 암반 사면의 안정성 분석을 통하여 Barton-Bandits (BB)의 구성방정식과 Mohr-Coulom (MC)의 구성방정식을 비교해 보았다. 절리의 전단변위 발생에 따른 수직팽창을 허용하는 BB 모델에서는 현장의 사면 양상과 매우 유사한 결과를 도출하였으며, 그 결과 10cm 두께의 숏크리트 타설이 보강 방안으로 제안되었다. 반면, 수직팽창이 일정한 값으로 주어지는 MC모델에서는 외부 하중 조건에 대하여 둔감한 반응을 보이는 등 현장 상황을 충분히 예측하지 못하는 결과가 도출되었다.

The Distinct Element Method (DEM) was used to analyze the stability of jointed rock slope, of which dimension are about 200m(length), 60m(height), $55^{\circ}$ dip. The Barton-Bandis joint model was used, as a constitutive model. The parameters such as JRC and spatial distribution characteristics of discontinuities were acquired through field investigation. Three different cases such as $51^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$ and $38^{\circ}$ in angle of rock slope were analyzed to decide a stable slope. To keep the jointed rock slope safely, it is proposed to reduce the height of slope from 60m to 48m and to reduce the angle of the from $55^{\circ}$ to $38^{\circ}$ too.

절리 암반의 역학적 물성 및 거동 평가가 터널 및 지하구조물의 설계에 매우 중요하다 할지라도, 그것은 항상 매우 어려운 문제로 간주되어 왔다. 암반 거동을 모사하는데 있어서 어려움중의 하나는 적절한 구성 모델을 선정하는 것이다. 이러한 한계점은 PFC와 같이 사용자로 하여금 암반의 구성 모델을 요구하지 않는 개별요소 프로그램의 개발과 함께 극복되어질 것이다. 본 연구에서는 도로터널 현장의 30\;m\;\times\;30\;m\;\times\;30\;m 절리 암반블록을 대상으로, 시추 및 지표 지질조사를 통해 얻어진 절리의 기하학적 형태자료를 근거로 개별균열망이 작성되었다. 개별균열망 모델의 절리 형상을 근거로 절리가 없는 상태에서 점차적으로 절리군을 추가해가면서 2차원 PFC모델이 만들어졌다. 또한 각각의 PFC모델에 대한 수치모사를 통하여 각 모델의 응력-변형율 곡선이 얻어졌다. 응력-변형율 곡선으로부터 절리 암반의 역학적 물성이 결정되었다. 절리의 존재는 암반의 역학적 물성에 상당한 영향을 미쳤으며, 더욱 중요한 것은 PFC모델의 역학적 거동은 기존의 수치모델에서 요구되는 구성 모델에 의하여 결정되지 않는다는 것이다.

A forked tunnel, as a special complicated underground structure, is composed of big-arch tunnel, multi-arch tunnel, neighborhood tunnels and separate tunnels according to the different distances between two separate tunnels. Due to the complicated process of design and construction, surrounding jointed rock mass stability of the big-arch tunnel which belongs to the forked tunnel during excavation is a hot issue that needs special attentions. In this paper, an elasto-plastic damage constitutive model for jointed rock mass is proposed based on the coupling method considering elasto-plastic and damage theories, and the irreversible thermodynamics theory. Based on this elasto-plastic damage constitutive model, a three dimensional elasto-plastic damage finite element code (D-FEM) is implemented using Visual Fortran language, which can numerically simulate the whole excavation process of underground project and perform the structural stability of the surrounding rock mass. Comparing with a popular commercial computer code, three dimensional fast Lagrangian analysis of continua (FLAC3D), this D-FEM has advantages in terms of rapid computing process, element grouping function and providing more material models. After that, FLAC3D and D-FEM are simultaneously used to perform the structural stability analysis of the surrounding rock mass in the forked tunnel considering three different computing schemes. The final numerical results behave almost consistent using both FLAC3D and D-FEM. But from the point of numerically obtained damage softening areas, the numerical results obtained by D-FEM more closely approach the practical behaviors of in-situ surrounding rock mass.

거친 절리면의 수직팽창 특성이 전단거동에 미치는 영향을 고려할 수 있는 새로운 전단거동 구성법책을 탄소성이론에 근거하여 제시하였다. 공식화 과정에서는 항복함수 및 소성포텐셜 함수로 Barton의 경험적 강도식들이 이용되었다. 전단강도의 경화 및 연화현상을 반영시키기 이해 mobilized JRC 개념이 적용되었다. 최대전단강도 이전과 이후의 JRC 변화는 절리면 전단방향 소성일의 함수로 표현할 수 있다고 가정하였다. 제안된 구성모델을 개별체 절리 유한요소에 적용하여 실행시켰다. 경계조건을 달리한 수치 직접전단시험을 통하여 제안된 모델을 검증하였다. 해석결과는 여러 문헌에 보고된 실험결과들과 잘 일치하였다. 또한 제안된 모델은 거친 절리면의 전단시험에서 특징적으로 나타나는 현상들을 잘 모사할 수 있음을 보였다.
