Book Constitutive Modeling of Rocks with Internal Cracks

Download or read book Constitutive Modeling of Rocks with Internal Cracks written by Dusan Krajcinovic and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analytical model discussed and formulated in this report focuses on the derivation of a constitutive model for low-porosity, crystalline rocks subjected to compressive stresses. The proposed model is inspired by micromechanical analyses of the kinked-crack mechanism. The report also discusses advantages and limitations of the proposed model listing topics requiring further research. An illustrative example indicates that the suggested methodology leads to a relatively simple and tractable model which was, nevertheless, able to replicate major trends in the deformation process of a Westerly granite specimen in uniaxial compression. AH major material parameters in the proposed analytical model are physically identifiable and experimentally measurable. Brittle response, Microcracks, Granite, Rock, Stress-strain, Kinked crack.

Download or read book Constitutive Modeling of Geomaterials written by Qiang Yang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 779 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second International Symposium on Constitutive Modeling of Geomaterials: Advances and New Applications (IS-Model 2012), is to be held in Beijing, China, during October 15-16, 2012. The symposium is organized by Tsinghua University, the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (IACMAG), the Committee of Numerical and Physical Modeling of Rock Mass, Chinese Society for Rock Mechanics and Engineering, and the Committee of Constitutive Relations and Strength Theory, China Institution of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, China Civil Engineering Society. This Symposium follows the first successful International Workshop on Constitutive Modeling held in Hong Kong, which was organized by Prof. JH Yin in 2007. Constitutive modeling of geomaterials has been an active research area for a long period of time. Different approaches have been used in the development of various constitutive models. A number of models have been implemented in the numerical analyses of geotechnical structures. The objective of the symposium is to provide a forum for researchers and engineers working or interested in the area of constitutive modeling to meet together and share new ideas, achievements and experiences through presentations and discussions. Emphasis is placed on recent advances of constitutive modeling and its applications in both theoretic and experimental aspects. Six famous scholars have been invited for the plenary speeches of the symposiums. Some prominent scholars have been invited to organize four specialized workshops on hot topics, including “Time-dependent stress-strain behavior of geomaterials”, “Constitutive modeling within critical state soil mechanics”, “Multiscale and multiphysics in geomaterials”, and “Damage to failure in rock structures”. A total of 49 papers are included in the above topics. In addition, 51 papers are grouped under three topics covering “Behaviour of geomaterials”, “Constitutive model”, and “Applications”. The editors expect that the book can be helpful as a reference to all those in the field of constitutive modeling of geomaterials.

Book Numerical Model for Simulating Dynamic Processes in Rocks

Download or read book Numerical Model for Simulating Dynamic Processes in Rocks written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A constitutive model for porous, brittle rocks that includes both compaction and fracture is presented. The model is microphysical in that inelasticity is directly related to the mechanics of crack growth and also to the plastic collapse of spherical pores. The model is suitable for computing and has been implemented in a two-dimensional stress wave code. The paper describes a mechanical model of pore collapse, the role of effective moduli in combining the effects of the pores and the cracks in a consistent fashion, and the importance of self-consistent corrections to the moduli in the calculation of spall. 12 references, 1 figure. (ACR).

Book Numerical Modeling of Soil Constitutive Relationship

Download or read book Numerical Modeling of Soil Constitutive Relationship written by Qingyang Ren and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-01 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book adopts numerical method to model soil constitutive relationship while it abandons the traditional idea of looking for plastic potential as the only way to model. Firstly, the triaxial compression tests of expansive soil, sand and clay under different stress paths are introduced; then the elastoplastic constitutive equations of expansive soil, sand and clay under various stress paths are established by numerical modeling method; finally, the constitutive equations are embedded in the finite element program and verified by comparing the finite element calculation results of the triaxial test soil samples with the corresponding test results. The modeling obtains high accuracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fourth American Physical Society Topical Conference on Shock Waves in Condensed Matter was held in Spokane, Washington, July 22-25, 1985. Two hundred and fifty scientists and engineers representing thirteen countries registered at the conference. The countries represented included the United States of America, Australia, Canada, The People's Repub lic of China, France, India, Israel, Japan, Republic of China (Taiwan), United Kingdom, U. S. S. R, Switzerland and West Germany. One hundred and sixty-two technical papers, cov ering recent developments in shock wave and high pressure physics, were presented. All of the abstracts have been published in the September 1985 issue of the Bulletin of the American Physical Society. The topical conferences, held every two years since 1979, have become the principal forum for shock wave studies in condensed materials. Both formal and informal technical discussions regarding recent developments conveyed a sense of excitement. Consistent with the past conferences, the purpose of this conference was to bring together scientists and engineers studying the response of condensed matter to dynamic high pressures and temperatures. Papers covering experimental, theoretical, and numerical studies of con densed matter properties were presented. A noteworthy feature of this conference was the participation by several leading scientists engaged in static high pressure research. Donald Curran served as the Master of Ceremonies at the conference banquet, which was at tended by two hundred and seventy-five conference participants and guests including Dr. Samuel Smith, the new President of Washington State University.
