This study comparatively evaluated the effects of water–binder ratio (W/B = 0.35–0.55), fly ash replacement (0–30%), and a commercial mica-based silane/polydimethylsiloxane-modified internal hydrophobic powder, hereafter denoted as YREC (0–5%) on concrete deterioration under a common accelerated wetting–drying protocol. Specimens were exposed to fivefold artificial seawater by 16 h immersion at 20 °C followed by drying at 60 °C for up to 120 cycles. Compressive strength retention, relative dynamic modulus, mass loss, water absorption, apparent chloride penetration depth, cumulative moisture loss during drying, and water uptake during re-immersion were measured. After 120 cycles, increasing W/B from 0.35 to 0.55 reduced compressive strength retention from 96.18% to 84.78% and increased apparent chloride penetration depth from 11 to 50 mm. Fly ash produced a non-monotonic response: the 20% replacement mixture achieved the best overall performance among the tested dosages, with 91.27% strength retention, 0.814% mass loss, and an apparent chloride penetration depth of 21 mm. The 5% YREC mixture showed 92.79% strength retention, 0.681% mass loss, 2.08% water absorption, and an 18 mm apparent chloride penetration depth; its cumulative moisture loss was 30.3 g, compared with 53.6 g for the unmodified control. Extending drying from 6 to 36 h reduced strength retention from 88.15% to 83.01% and increased mass loss from 1.382% to 1.792%, reflecting the combined effects of drying severity and cumulative thermal exposure. Overall, lower post-exposure moisture exchange was associated with better mechanical retention, less surface scaling, and shallower chloride penetration.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":698,"journal":{"name":"Mechanics of Time-Dependent Materials","volume":"30 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2026-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148837588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The strength degradation of salt rocks under triaxial stress states could be attributed to a progressive transition in its strength mechanism—from cohesion-dominated behavior to one increasingly governed by frictional resistance associated with the internal friction angle.

However, because wood is viscoelastic, stress relaxation under sustained confinement may reduce interfacial friction and degrade connection performance over time. In this study, 90 Chinese fir specimens were prepared to investigate the effect of stress relaxation on steel–wood interface friction under strong confinement. Three volume compression percentages (VCPs), 33%, 48%, and 55%, and six relaxation durations, 0, 1, 7, 15, 30, and 80 days, were considered. Push-out tests were conducted to characterize the friction force–slip response, static friction stress, and normal stress evolution at the steel–wood interface. The results show that frictional performance is strongly affected by VCP and wood density. Higher VCP and higher density lead to greater peak push-out force and static friction stress. Stress relaxation occurs mainly during the first 30 days, with rapid reductions in friction stress at early relaxation durations. Increasing VCP reduces the loss of friction stress and accelerates relaxation stabilization. A three-element viscoelastic model was used to describe the stress relaxation behavior of confined Chinese fir, and a relationship between friction stress and relaxation duration was established. The proposed model showed good agreement with the experimental results and can support prediction of the long-term mechanical performance of strongly confined timber connections.

The results indicate that, under constant-amplitude repeated impact loading, the dynamic strength and dynamic elastic modulus generally decrease with increasing impact number, demonstrating a degradation process dominated by damage accumulation. Under incremental cyclic impact loading, the dynamic strength increases markedly with increasing impact amplitude; however, crack propagation during the later loading stage leads to stiffness degradation and sudden failure, reflecting competition among strain-rate strengthening, cyclic compaction, and damage-induced degradation. Energy analysis shows that the cumulative dissipated energy increases continuously with impact number. Under incremental cyclic impact loading, a larger impact-amplitude increment accelerates damage accumulation and causes the specimen to enter the high-damage regime at an earlier stage. The energy-based damage variable <span>(D)</span> effectively characterizes the damage evolution process and exhibits good agreement with the observed macroscopic failure characteristics. The results demonstrate that the impact-amplitude increment governs the rate and critical process by which granite transitions from compaction-induced strengthening to damage-dominated instability, while the stability of surrounding rock primarily depends on whether internal damage approaches the critical state of crack coalescence.

The −850 m roadway in Qujiang Coal Mine is longitudinally tiled under the 805 working face and coal pillar. Affected by the mining of the upper working face and the bias of the coal pillar, the roadway presents various deformation and damage characteristics. The deformation and damage patterns of the dynamic pressure roadway of the back mining are analysed through field investigation, bolt and anchor cable force monitoring, and peripheral rock deformation monitoring, and the proposed support countermeasures are verified and analysed by using FLAC3D numerical software. The results show that: (1) Using bolt/anchor cable axial force monitoring and surrounding rock deformation monitoring, it is found that the mining-induced dynamic pressure −850 m roadway displays distinct zonal damage characteristics, which can be divided into a rear sustained (high-pressure) deformation zone and a forward disturbance (dynamic-pressure) deformation zone. (2) In the forward disturbance (dynamic-pressure) deformation zone, damage mainly occurs in the upper roof of the roadway, predominantly as sliding shear damage; in the rear sustained (high-pressure) deformation zone, damage mainly occurs at the floor and the arch foot. The floor is prone to plastic extrusion deformation and damage, while the arch foot mainly experiences punching shear and internal folding damage. (3) According to the different damage modes of the −850 m roadway, it is proposed to implement “three-anchor” combined support technology in the rear sustained (high-pressure) deformation zone, and to implement “resistance-yielding combined” support in the forward disturbance (dynamic-pressure) deformation zone.

In this paper, composition-controlled synthetic salt rock cores were prepared by high-temperature axial compaction using halite as the matrix and anhydrite or sylvite as accessory minerals. Anhydrite-halite specimens contained 0-80 wt.% anhydrite, while sylvite-halite specimens contained 10-100 wt.% sylvite. Triaxial creep experiments were conducted for 20 hours under a confining pressure of 15 MPa at different temperatures and deviatoric stresses. The results indicate that increasing anhydrite content reduced accumulated creep strain, lowered the steady-state creep rate, weakened stress and temperature sensitivity, and shortened the transition from primary to steady-state creep. In contrast, increasing sylvite content increased creep deformation and produced a more gradual transition, indicating a stronger viscosity-dominated response. To describe these composition-dependent trends, a modified nonlinear Burgers model was formulated by replacing the Maxwell dashpot with a Heard unit, allowing nonlinear stress- and temperature-dependent steady-state creep to be represented. A staged parameter-identification procedure was used to separate the primary and steady-state creep contributions, and the model parameters were correlated with halite, anhydrite, and sylvite mass fractions. Validation using natural Lower Fars Formation salt cores from the Missan Oilfield showed that the predicted parameters reproduced the measured creep curves with relative strain errors within 20%.
