Study on the constitutive model for jointed rock mass.
Bottom Line:
The proposed the yield strength criterion, which is anisotropic, is not only related to friction angle and cohesion of jointed rock masses at the visual angle but also related to the intersection angle between the visual angle and the directions of the principal stresses.Some numerical examples are given to analyze and verify the proposed constitutive model.The results show the proposed constitutive model has high precision to calculate displacement, stress and plastic strain and can be applied in engineering analysis.

ABSTRACT
Show MeSH
A new elasto-plastic constitutive model for jointed rock mass, which can consider the persistence ratio in different visual angle and anisotropic increase of plastic strain, is proposed. The proposed the yield strength criterion, which is anisotropic, is not only related to friction angle and cohesion of jointed rock masses at the visual angle but also related to the intersection angle between the visual angle and the directions of the principal stresses. Some numerical examples are given to analyze and verify the proposed constitutive model. The results show the proposed constitutive model has high precision to calculate displacement, stress and plastic strain and can be applied in engineering analysis. Related in: MedlinePlus |

pone.0121850.g012: Curves of shear stress-displacement of experiment and numerical simulation Mentions: Through observing the results of Fig 11 and Fig 12, they show that the results of failure mode of rock mass by experiment and numerical simulation by proposed model are similar. And the curves of shear stress-displacement of experiment and numerical simulation by proposed model are close. These results verify the proposed constitutive model. And it shows proposed model can describe the behavior of jointed rock well. |
