The analysis reveals five distinct stages in the stress–strain curves of rocks: elastic recovery, damage retention, damage initiation, damage acceleration, and damage slowdown. To simulate the stress–strain relationship of rocks, a damage model based on logistic equation is proposed. The model is developed using the “elastic modulus method,” derived from the hypothesis of strain equivalence, and experimental data obtained from complete stress–strain curves of marble and quartzite under various confining pressures. The proposed model effectively captures the brittle fracture deformation of rocks under uniaxial compression, as well as the strain softening, brittle–ductile transformation, and strain hardening deformation behaviors of rocks under different confining pressures. It adopts a simple function form with distinct parameters derived from physical characteristics, enabling the description of both pre-peak and post-peak deformation characteristics of rocks. The theoretical results obtained from the model align well with existing experimental findings. The physical significance of the model parameters is discussed in relation to damage evolution and constitutive relations, affirming the rationality of the proposed model. Overall, the proposed model exhibits significant potential for broad application in rock engineering.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143506912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This formulation provides for a direct link between the subjects of Damage and Healing Mechanics using Fabric Tensors. A new damage-healing tensor is introduced that is based on the fabric of the material. This new tensor is pivotal in characterizing the micro-structure of the material, especially the distributions of micro-cracks and other micro defects. It is noted that the theory applies to linear elastic materials but can be generalized to other constitutive models incorporating inelastic behavior. As examples, the authors solve three cases, namely those of plane stress, plane strain, and isotropic elasticity. The case of plane stress assumes plane damage and plane healing as will be illustrated in the equations. Similarly, the case of plane strain is also illustrated. The case of isotropic elasticity assumes the presence of isotropic damage and isotropic healing. As an illustration, a numerical example is shown for a certain micro-crack distribution. Finally, experimental results are shown to illustrate the relationship between the fabric tensor parameters and the components of the damage and healing tensors. Finally, the evolution of damage and healing are discussed based on sound thermodynamic principles.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143417739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Combined with their high specific strength, this makes them perfectly suitable for high temperature safety relevant components. In view of the design process of CMC components elaborated continuum damage models are required that most importantly consider their anisotropy and damage deactivation effects in a mechanically and mathematically consistent manner. With respect to their damage effect, most of the existing anisotropic models fail with regard to the damage growth criterion leading to the unphysical effect of an increasing stiffness due to damage. Motivated by the modelling process of initially anisotropic composite materials like CMCs, this paper presents the systematic formulation and validation of a mechanically consistent damage effect model together with crack closure effects.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"160 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143385607","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It demonstrates that the integration path of M-integral can cross the material interface. The numerical calculation of M-integral is realized by using domain integral method. The accuracy of the model was verified using analytical solutions. The factors affecting the M-integral of the interfacial material are explored with the help of finite elements. The study explores the effects of elastic modulus ratio, defects, and load on the M-integral, and proposes an equivalent damage calibration method based on the M-integral. The results suggest that once the elastic modulus ratio exceeds a certain threshold, it is no longer the primary factor influencing the M-integral. The equivalent defect for elastic problems is linked to the original defect configuration and elastic modulus ratio, and is independent of the external load. This study is important for calibrating damage levels of interfacial materials, designing for damage tolerance in structures, and assessing integrity.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143258429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective about the research was to ascertain how various gas pressures and loading rates affected permeability and damage deformation. The results conclude that shear failure predominates in gassy coal, a rise in loading rate causes the permeability to mutate more slowly, and the plastic strain gradually decreases at the yield, peak, and post-peak stable points in gassy coal. As well, a rise in gas pressure causes an earlier transition from compression to expansion state of specimens, enhances permeability, and rises the plastic strain at specified points. Furthermore, the study focuses on the meso-scale failure and permeability characteristics. During failure, the seepage channel within the coal body gradually transitions from a vertical orientation to irregular deformation. In addition, a damage model is formulated centered around energy consumption, demonstrating that damage evolution curves exhibit an ‘ S’ shape with vertical strain. Meanwhile, higher axial loading rates delay the onset of unstable crack propagation, but raising gas pressure quickens the pace of damage to specimens. The conclusions of this research hold significant practical implications for mitigating coal-rock gas dynamic disasters.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142992031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Engineering disturbances commonly lead to varying degrees of pre-peak damage. To elucidate the evolutionary laws of strength in pre-peak damaged mudstone, we first defined the pre-peak damage variable ( D<jats:sub>a</jats:sub>) for mudstone, and through triaxial loading and unloading tests, obtained the mechanical characteristics of pre-peak damaged mudstone, analyzing its brittle properties from an energy perspective. Subsequently, through scanning electron microscopy tests, we analyzed the microstructural features to reveal the failure mechanism. Finally, the damage ratio strength theory (DR) was introduced to characterize the strength of the mudstone and validate the suitability of the DR. The results demonstrate that: (1) Mudstone with pre-peak damage exhibits a significant weakening effect due to water-rock interaction, with a maximum reduction in peak strength of approximately 28%. Compared to the loading stress path (LSP), the overall strength of the mudstone is lower under the unloading stress path (ULSP), and the deformation modulus decreases more significantly with D<jats:sub>a</jats:sub> under the ULSP. (2) Both the D<jats:sub>a</jats:sub>and confining pressure contribute to a decrease in the brittleness index of the mudstone. Under the ULSP, the mudstone is more prone to brittle failure. (3) The development of micro-cracks in pre-peak damaged mudstone makes it more susceptible to water infiltration, exacerbating the deteriorating effect of water-rock interaction, thus affecting its mechanical properties. (4) The DR can effectively characterize the strength of pre-peak damaged mudstone. The Damage Ratio (ν <jats:sub>D,c</jats:sub>) of mudstone under the LSP is in the range of 1.07∼1.50, and under the ULSP is in the range of 1.11∼1.52. The ν <jats:sub>D,c</jats:sub> under the LSP is smaller than under the ULSP, decreases with the D<jats:sub>a</jats:sub>, and exhibits plastic deformation, indicating that the DR can simultaneously characterize the strength and brittleness of the mudstone. The research results can provide guidance for the design parameters and disaster prevention of disturbed mudstone engineering.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142936733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated the effect of metallic contaminants on press plate damage and evaluated the use of infrared thermography (IRT) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy as non-destructive testing (NDT) methods for detecting these contaminants in wood panel manufacturing. Metallic contaminants embedded within lab-scale wood panels demonstrated their impact on the surface quality of both the press plate and the resulting panels. Moreover, confocal laser microscope analysis revealed that the surface roughness of the press plate surface was influenced by the specific alloy composition of contaminants, with steel and chromium contaminants exhibiting the more severe damage (e.g., mean roughness values of 59,80 and 84,64 μm, respectively). Thermography images exhibited the efficacy of IRT in detecting contaminants close to the surface of thin panels. However, an advanced camera is recommended for thicker panels and deeper contaminants to obtain a more accurate inspection. The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) evaluation revealed the presence of the metal-oxygen vibration band at approximately 668 cm<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup> across all alloy compositions, suggesting its potential as a reliable reference for detecting metallic contaminants.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142935157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed damage model is based on composite damage mechanics and is composed of three phases: cement paste, interface transition zone (ITZ), and aggregate. All phases are assumed to be linearly elastic and isotropic materials. The aggregate is supposed to be the undamaged material, while the cement paste and ITZ are considered the damaged materials. Three different composite damage models, namely Voigt (parallel), Reuss (serial), and the proposed generalized self-consistent (spherical), represent the damage growth in the composite materials. The Voigt parallel model is employed to address the upper bound of post-peak stiffness and stress, while the Reuss serial model represents the lower bound. To investigate the softening phenomenon after the post-peak state, both linear and exponential functions are used to describe the stress-strain curve in this state. Two numerical simulations are provided to examine the stress degradation in the softening state. Both simulations reveal that the post-peak stress degrades with increasing damage parameters and ITZ thickness. Therefore, both damage and ITZ’s thickness are significant factors for analyzing the post-peak responses of RAC.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142867093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
