Results demonstrate that under constant-rate cyclic loading, increasing the loading–unloading rate significantly reduces the hysteretic energy dissipation, softening rate, dislocation density in monocrystalline models, and atomic shear strain, thereby enhancing cyclic stress response and stabilizing the face-centered cubic lattice structure. Plastic yielding in monocrystalline salt rock can be delayed by either increasing the loading rate or employing variable-rate loading. In contrast, polycrystalline salt rock enters the plastic stage immediately upon the first cycle, with its lattice structure exhibiting recovery ordering after initial damage—a phenomenon most pronounced at lower loading rates. Regarding microscopic deformation mechanisms, dislocations and strain localization in monocrystalline salt rock are concentrated at the crystal top, forming continuous oblique patterns, while damage in polycrystalline salt rock is primarily confined to grain boundary regions. Under the same average loading rate, simulations reveal that the depressurization loading mode corresponding to the air extraction phase induces more severe structural softening, indicating that the accelerated loading path can more effectively inhibit the propagation of microcracks and the accumulation of intergranular damage. This research provides atomistic insight into cyclic deformation and defect evolution in salt rock, which may help inform future multiscale assessments of salt cavern stability.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149130439","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}

To clarify the unified mechanism governing the static and dynamic responses of cyclically pre-damaged rock, red sandstone specimens were first subjected to cyclic loading-unloading under different upper limit cyclic stresses and then tested under uniaxial compression and SHPB impact loading. Acoustic emission (AE), digital image correlation, fragment fractal analysis, and scanning electron microscopy were combined to characterize the multiscale evolution of deformation and failure. The results show that cyclic pre-damage progressively reconstructs the internal crack network and degrades the load-bearing skeleton of the rock, causing exponential reductions in static peak strength and elastic modulus and linear attenuation of dynamic mechanical parameters. AE activity is systematically enhanced, the pre-peak quiet period shortens, and burst signals occur earlier with increasing initial damage. Moreover, the sensitivity of dynamic parameters to pre-damage becomes stronger at higher strain rates, indicating a strain-rate amplification of damage weakening. Multiscale observations further demonstrate that cyclic pre-damage alters the energy dissipation pathway and drives the failure mode from brittle-dominated fracture to ductile-dominated instability. These findings provide a unified physical framework for evaluating the residual stability and dynamic disaster potential of disturbed rock masses.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149130441","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}

Ultra-high-performance concrete was fabricated with 0%–25% cement replaced by coral powder (CP) at 5% intervals. Damage evolution during Brazilian splitting tests was tracked using acoustic emission (AE) and computed tomography (CT). Key precursors of progressive failure were identified, and the precursor response coefficient and precursor response stress ratio were introduced for comprehensive evaluation. Results showed that the mechanical performance strongly depended on CP content. A 5%–10% CP content shortened the compaction stage, steepened the linear-stage slope and delayed the pre-peak nonlinearity onset, whereas ≥15% CP produced opposite effects. Tensile strength peaked at 5% CP, with a 6.24% increase; the subsequent decline at higher CP contents may result from dilution and weakened cementation. Under the present CT conditions, 5% CP showed the lowest detectable defect level. With increasing CP content, defects increased, with limited meso-pore growth at 10%–15% and pronounced macropore expansion above 15%. CP content modulated the damage evolution pattern. During the unstable fracture stage, the CG5 group exhibited the smallest damage increment and the strongest crack-arrest capacity, whereas ≥15% of content intensified local deterioration. Multi-parameter AE analysis revealed that <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">ρ</jats:italic> and <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">S</jats:italic> provided relatively early warning signals yet exhibited substantial data dispersion, whereas tensile crack ratio and <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">b</jats:italic> value, although slightly delayed, demonstrated superior stability.

Traditional testing methods are costly and time-consuming, while empirical formulas often lack generalizability, limiting their effectiveness for precise design requirements. This study aims to establish a high-precision and interpretable UHPC compressive strength prediction and interpretation framework. Utilizing 595 valid mix ratio-strength datasets (the data were split into training and test sets at an 8:2 ratio with five-fold cross-validation used for model evaluation), we compared the performance of six ensemble algorithms: XGBoost, CatBoost, random forest (RF), gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT), AdaBoost, and LightGBM (LGBM). Bayesian hyperparameter optimization was used to identify the optimal parameter combination, and combined SHAP-SALib analyses were employed to achieve explicit model interpretability. Results indicate that the Bayesian-optimized CatBoost model performs best (test set: R <jats:sup>2</jats:sup> = 0.951, RMSE = 6.56 MPa, MAPE = 3.10%), followed by XGBoost (test set: R <jats:sup>2</jats:sup> = 0.925, RMSE = 8.067 MPa, MAPE = 3.573%). Both models demonstrate significantly superior generalization stability compared to the others. SHAP analysis identifies the key influencing factors in descending order: age and steel fiber. SALib analysis confirms that the combined contribution of water-binder ratio, age and Silica fume is substantial, with significant multi-factor interaction effects. This study establishes a high-precision and interpretable UHPC compressive strength prediction model and provides data-driven guidance for mix proportion design.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"146 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149130440","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}

During clinical service, these components are subjected to repeated sliding, bending, and moderate temperature variations, which can promote progressive surface degradation. In this study, the influence of combined thermo-mechanical loading on the wear and damage behavior of commercial NiTi archwires was experimentally investigated under simulated oral conditions. Cyclic friction tests were performed in artificial saliva on circular and rectangular archwires at different temperatures, normal loads, and archwire deflection levels using a rotating tribometer. A bending device was employed to closely reproduce in-vivo conditions. After 12,000 sliding cycles, wear rates increased by ∼50% for the rectangular archwire in the active configuration and by about 60% when the normal load was raised to 13 N at 50 °C, compared with passive conditions at 2 N ( <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n</jats:italic> = 3, <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p</jats:italic> &lt; 0.001). Increasing the test temperature above the austenite finish temperature ( <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\"> A <jats:sub>f</jats:sub> </jats:italic> ) led to a further decrease in wear resistance. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of the wear tracks revealed that abrasive and fatigue-assisted wear patterns were the dominant degradation mechanisms. Bending promoted localized deformation and surface cracking, contributing to reduced fatigue life. Cyclic friction in these regions further enhanced surface damage. These findings provide experimental insight into damage evolution in superelastic NiTi components under combined cyclic loading and moderate temperature variations, offering guidance for durability assessment of orthodontic archwires under service-like conditions.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149130410","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}

Three different FMs were examined: flange oil, slag powder, and a hybrid oil + slag powder mixture. A twin-disc test was conducted over 700,000 cycles to evaluate crack initiation and propagation. Surface and subsurface damage characteristics were analyzed using scanning electron microscope (SEM) micrographs. The results show that under flange oil conditions, RCF cracks propagate deeper beneath the surface (127 µm), and the presence of liquid oil promotes crack opening and expansion due to hydraulic pressure within the microcracks. In contrast, slag powder (FMA) alone caused severe wear and surface delamination, demonstrating the lack of protective film formation. However, when combined with slag powder + oil (FMB), the cohesive third body layer formed by viscous oil and slag powder particles effectively restricted subsurface crack growth. The FMB formulation reduced the average subsurface crack length by approximately 42% compared to the flange oil condition and by approximately 35% compared to the slag powder-only condition. Similarly, it successfully reduced the average crack depth by up to 77% in rail discs. This improvement demonstrates the hybrid FM's ability to balance local stresses and suppress hydraulic crack propagation. In general, the findings indicate that hybrid FM, composed of oil and solid waste-based particles, can significantly increase RCF resistance by balancing lubrication and surface protection mechanisms. This highlights that it offers a promising approach for extending the service life of wheel/rail systems.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149130445","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 extends the classical scalar characteristic length of gradient damage models to a tensorial characteristic length field. This second-order tensor, varying from grain to grain with the local crystallographic orientation, contains information related to the anisotropy of single-crystal fracture resistance, and thus provides a physically motivated parameter governing crack path selection. By appropriately tuning this tensorial field, damage evolution can be hindered in certain directions while being promoted along others, naturally reproducing cleavage fracture behaviour where cracks propagate along preferred crystallographic planes. The present model is built within the framework of the thermodynamics of irreversible processes using the approach of Frémond and Nedjar. To account for the damage evolution under multi-axial stress states, an anisotropic volumetric-deviatoric stiffness decomposition is used. The model is assessed through several loading cases, including a crack propagation simulation in a polycrystalline aggregate where the effect of a tensorial characteristic length field is investigated.","PeriodicalId":13837,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Damage Mechanics","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149083853","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}

CWNet consists of two branches: a boundary-guided segmentation branch and a weld joint detection branch, both of which embed feature pyramid networks to fuse features. During the training process, task-specific evaluation metrics were designed for different tasks, and the training results were compared with the baseline models to assess performance improvements. The proposed assessment and quantification method was validated through laboratory tests on specimens representing local details of a steel box girder. Experimental results demonstrated that, compared to the baseline models, CWNet improved the mean intersection over union and structural similarity by more than 7% and 9%. Additionally, the line similarity metric for weld joint detection achieved 84.7%. On images of structural specimens, CWNet achieved a segmentation performance exceeding 75% and a weld detection score exceeding 90%.
