Abstract
Drilling and fracturing are the key technologies for shale gas extraction, while most of the loads generated during rock drilling or fracturing are dynamic. In this study, dynamic impact experiments were conducted on the cracked chevron-notched Brazilian disc shale specimens with different chevron-notched crack (CNC) inclinations (β) and layer inclinations (α) by the split Hopkinson pressure bar. The results show that the dynamic peak load and dissipated energy increases with the increase of β, α, and strain rate, but their changing trends are different. The generation and expansion of cracks during the specimen failure process are mainly affected by β. As β increases, the failure type of the specimen can be divided into pure mode I fracture, mode I-II mixed fracture, pure mode II fracture, mixed tension-shear failure, and Brazilian splitting failure. The increase in strain rate will lead to a decrease in the time for crack initiation and propagation as well as an increase in secondary cracks. In addition, the mode I fracture toughness (KⅠC) and mode II fracture toughness (KⅡC) both grow with the increase of α and strain rate. The KⅡC predicted by the generalized maximum tangential stress criterion (GMST) exhibits more accurate.
期刊介绍:
Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics'' aims & scopes have been re-designed to cover both the theoretical, applied, and numerical aspects associated with those cracking related phenomena taking place, at a micro-, meso-, and macroscopic level, in materials/components/structures of any kind.
The journal aims to cover the cracking/mechanical behaviour of materials/components/structures in those situations involving both time-independent and time-dependent system of external forces/moments (such as, for instance, quasi-static, impulsive, impact, blasting, creep, contact, and fatigue loading). Since, under the above circumstances, the mechanical behaviour of cracked materials/components/structures is also affected by the environmental conditions, the journal would consider also those theoretical/experimental research works investigating the effect of external variables such as, for instance, the effect of corrosive environments as well as of high/low-temperature.
