In complex rock engineering, understanding the stress state and determining stability and damage evolution are necessary. To more accurately provide a theoretical basis for judging the stress state of bedrock in engineering, this study experimentally addressed the damage evolution of sandstone under loading and unloading conditions. A theoretical relationship between rock resistivity and porosity was obtained according to the Archie formula, which allowed the derivation of the sandstone damage variable expression. Then, sandstone rock samples were used for experimental evaluation, and the feasibility of the theoretically determined damage variable was verified. Finally, through theoretical and experimental comparison analysis, we developed a correlative damage model for sandstone under uniaxial loading and unloading. The results show that the damage variable varies linearly with strain. The proposed correlative equation describes this behavior accurately for loading and unloading conditions. Based on the results of this study, the correlative damage model of sandstone under cyclic loading and unloading conditions can be further improved to be a complete constitutive damage model.

Based on the statistical damage theory and the experimental phenomena, the statistical damage constitutive model for concrete under biaxial tension is proposed. The two meso-scale damage modes, rupture and yield are considered, and the whole damage evolution process is driven by the principal tensile damage strain. The results show that the proposed statistical damage model can accurately predict the constitutive behavior in the uniform damage phase for concrete under biaxial tension. The damage mechanism is discussed in the view point of biaxial strength and deformation properties.

With regards to the composition of natural rocks including voids or pores, deformation behavior is strongly affected by variation in porosity. By using a statistical damage-based approach, the characteristics of strain softening and hardening under the influence of voids and volume changes are investigated in the present paper. Suppose that a rock consists of three parts: voids, a damaged part, and an undamaged part. The effects of voids and volume changes on rock behavior are first analyzed through determination of the porosity and an associated damage model is then developed. Later, a statistical evolution equation describing the influence of the damage threshold on the propagation condition of rock damage is formulated based on measurement of the mesoscopic element strength. A statistical damage constitutive model reflecting strain softening and hardening behavior for rocks loaded in conventional triaxial compression is further developed and a corresponding method for determining the model parameters is also provided. Theoretical results of this proposed model are then compared with those observed experimentally. Finally, several aspects of the present constitutive model, which affect the relevant behavior of rocks, are particularly discussed.
