The mechanical behavior of geomaterials under plane-strain biaxial stress state (PSBSS, a special case of biaxial stress state) is often considered in geotechnical structures such as highwall and longwall coal pillars. In this study, a modified statistical damage constitutive model based on Weibull distribution was established to explain the mechanical behavior of rocks under the PSBSS. The modified Wiebols-Cook criterion, Drucker-Prager criterion, and extremum method were adopted in this model to estimate the peak strength of rock, the strength level of microscopic element, and the statistical parameters of model, respectively. Besides, laboratory tests for brittle and ductile geomaterials under PSBSS were conducted using the modified surface instability detection apparatus to validate the accuracy of the proposed statistical damage model. Finally, the relationships between mechanical parameters and statistical parameters were studied and discussed.

Alkali-resistant glass fiber reinforced concrete (AR-GFRC) has greatly improved in terms of tensile strength, toughness, durability, and reduction of cracking, which has been proven by testing. However, the constitutive relationship of fiber reinforced concrete under complicated stress represents a complex theoretical problem. In order to investigate the microscopic damage evolution and failure mechanism of AR-GFRC, the meso-statistical damage theory, microcontinuum theory, and composite material theory were considered, and uniaxial tensile tests of two types of AR-GFRC were conducted. A new damage variable expression of the AR-GFRC was proposed, and the stress-strain curve was redefined by considering the residual strength based on experimental fitting parameters and statistical parameters. A Weibull distribution was assumed and a statistical damage constitutive model was developed of the deformation process of the AR-GFRC while considering the residual strength effect; detailed calculation methods to determine the mechanical and statistical parameters of the concrete were developed. The validation results show that the theoretical stress-strain curve of the constitutive model is in good agreement with the experimental curve and the trend is consistent.

Statistical Damage

In the current paper, the deformation behaviours of rocks during compression are studied by testing 10 groups of sandstone samples with different porosity characteristics. According to the energy theory, the rock material was divided into two parts: solid skeleton and voids. A statistical damage-based approach was adopted to establish a nonlinear statistical damage constitutive model. The validity of the statistical damage constitutive model is verified by the test data. The statistical damage constitutive model performs well in each stage of rock compression before failure. For different types of rocks, different confining pressures, and different water contents, the statistical damage constitutive model fits well. This model can be applied to most types of rocks and in most engineering environments.

Statistical Damage

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.

Statistical Damage

Based on continuum damage mechanics and the assumption of volume invariance, a damage constitutive model of cemented sand under triaxial stress was established while considering residual strength. Statistical theory was then introduced into this model. Assuming that the microunit strength of cemented sand obeys a Weibull random distribution, an expression of microunit strength based on the Mohr–Coulomb criterion was derived. Additionally, a damage evolution equation and a statistical damage constitutive model of cemented sand under triaxial stress were established. In order to consider the nonlinear deformation and volume change in the initial pore compaction stage, the critical point reflecting the completion of the initial compaction stage was determined. This was done by applying the volume invariance assumption to the linear portion of the stress and strain curve and performing a coordinate transformation. The nonlinearity of the initial compaction stage was fitted by a quadratic function. A triaxial compression test of cemented sand was then carried out to verify this proposed method. The results show that the calculated values by the damage constitutive model fit well with the actual experimental values and that the calculated results can reflect the stress softening, residual strength, and initial compaction characteristics of cemented sand, which shows the rationality and feasibility of the model.
