Before rock burst, coal, and gas outburst dynamic load, rock mass in geotechnical engineering has been an indifferent degree of damage. The dissipation energy of rock mass under dynamic load reflects the difficulty of rock breaking. In view of the energy dissipation of damaged rock mass under dynamic load, the cyclic loading and unloading test is carried out to make sandstone in different damage states, and the damage degree of sandstone is characterized by the change of longitudinal wave velocity before and after cyclic loading and unloading. Then, the rock with different damage degrees is tested by adopting the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). Finally, the energy dissipation characteristics of damaged rock under impact load are analyzed. The results show that the damage factor of sandstone increases with the increase of the upper limit of stress after cyclic static loading. The dynamic strength and peak strain of damaged sandstone increase with the increase of impact pressure and decrease with the increase of damage degree. With the increase of damage degree of sandstone, the reflection energy and dissipation energy of sandstone increase, while the transmission energy decreases.

Through studying the mechanics, energy, and deformation features of rock under uniaxial cyclic loading and unloading, the findings are as follows: (1) under cyclic loading and unloading, the curve of stress and strain for loading and unloading in every cycle was not superposition reciprocally but formed an acutifoliate hysteresis loop. The distribution of the hysteresis loop became denser with the cycles and moved toward the direction of strain increasing. (2) The area of the hysteresis loop indicated the inner damage degree of rock. And the hysteresis energy accumulated was stronger; the damage of rock was more serious. Furthermore, the hysteresis energy grew linearly along with load, and the hysteresis energy accumulated had a trend exponential growth with cycle continuing. (3) The elasticity modulus grew in the form of logarithm as a whole. In each cycle, elasticity modulus for unloading was greater than that for loading. When it exceeded a certain value, elasticity modulus for reloading was less than elasticity modulus for unloading. (4) The cyclic loading and unloading had a strength impact that was gradually stronger and stronger as the cycle went on the sample of rock.

To analyse the effect of loading rate on the energy evolution of rocks under cyclic loading and unloading, tests on saturated limestone were conducted at loading rates of 0.15, 0.2, and 0.3 mm/min, and the evolution characteristics of plastic, elastic, dissipation, and input energies were examined under different loading rates. The results indicated that the plastic strain in the entire test was directly proportional to the loading rate. In addition, strength, residual stress, plastic energy, and dissipation energy under residual resistance were inversely proportional to the loading rate. The plastic strain exhibited a decreasing–stabilising–increasing trend, and the smaller loading rate delayed the “increasing” trend. The increasing extent of each energy exhibited the following trend: input > elastic > plastic > dissipation energy. Furthermore, the first three types of energy exhibited a slow–fast–slow–fast increase trend. The dissipation energy exhibited a fast–steady–fast–slow–fast increase trend. Additionally, the elastic energy index exhibited a large increase–steady increase–decrease trend, which was proportional to the loading rate. The damping ratio exhibited a decrease–increase–decrease–increase–decrease trend which was proportional to the loading rate in the compaction stage and inversely proportional to the plastic stage.

To study the fracture characteristics and fatigue damage of fractured rock masses, noncoplanar fractured rocklike specimens prepared using cement mortar were used for a graded cyclic loading–unloading test. The results showed that the two ends of the horizontal crack were the main stress concentration areas, and they inhibited crack initiation of the inclined fracture. With increasing crack inclination, the inhibitory effect became more obvious. Under the condition that the lower limit stress is constant, as the upper limit stress increases, energy dissipation of the specimen increases, becoming relatively stable in each stage of the cycle. With increasing crack inclination, the increase in the energy dissipation value decreases. Specimens with large changes in the shape of their hysteresis loop tend to exhibit large fluctuations in the elastic modulus. As the loading progressed, the elastic modulus exhibited a downward trend, and the damping ratio tended to be stable. The change in the damping ratio is affected by the dynamic elastic modulus and area of the hysteresis loop. Based on the Weibull probability distribution function, the evolution curve of the damage variable of the specimen can be obtained. This curve reflects the trend of the damage change of the rocklike specimens under various levels of cyclic loading and unloading.

The triaxial cyclic loading and unloading test was carried out on a TAW-2000 rock mechanics to study the permeability characteristics of deep-buried sandstone. This paper analyzed the evolution laws of permeability, elastic modulus, rock damage, dissipated energy, and acoustic emission events of sandstone under different confining pressures. It also introduced the concept of relative strain and further discussed the relationship between relative strain and permeability. The test results showed that the permeability of sandstone under cyclic loading and unloading obviously experienced three stages. At a low strain level, the damage degree of sandstone was low. As a result, both the number of acoustic emission events and the proportion of the dissipated energy density were small. In this stage, with increasing the stress, the permeability decreased. With the increase of the relative strain, the propagation of fissure increased through rock interior and the damage of rock was accumulated. Consequently, the number of acoustic emission events grew slowly, and the proportion of dissipated energy density and the damage variable (D) increased gradually. In this stage, the permeability increases. As the axial strain reached the peak strain, the fissures developed into cracks and the rock failure happened. The number of acoustic emission events increased rapidly; both the proportion of the dissipated energy density and the damage variable (D) obtain the maximum value. In this stage, the permeability increased greatly. In this study, the point of fissure propagation of rock specimens was used as the point of demarcation. Before the fissures propagated, the permeability increased slowly and it was in accordance with a linear function. After the fissures propagated, the degree of rock damage increased, and the permeability increased in the form of an exponential function. The larger the confining pressure was, the smaller the relative strain corresponding to the point of fissure propagation was.

Understanding the mechanical properties and energy response of high-porosity concrete under the cyclic loading and unloading is the foundation of road construction in sponge city. In this study, the concrete with the porosity of 15% was taken as the research object, and the cyclic loading and unloading tests on the high-porosity concrete were performed under the stress amplitude of 25 MPa, 30 MPa, and 35 MPa in the elastic stage. The effects of stress amplitude and cycle number on the mechanical characteristics and damage evolution law of concrete were obtained. The experimental results show the following. (1) With the increase of cycle number, the loading and unloading elastic modulus of concrete under different stress amplitudes first increases and then decreases; the greater the stress amplitude, the faster the growth and deceleration of the loading and unloading elastic modulus. (2) With the increase of the cycle number, the peak strain and residual plastic deformation increase. (3) The greater the stress amplitude, the higher the damage of concrete; with the increasing number of cyclic loading and unloading, the damage of concrete is enhanced gradually. When the damage variable value is 1, the relationship between the cycle number and the initial stress amplitude satisfies a negative exponential function.

Energy evolution varies during the whole process of rock deformation, and mechanical parameters are markedly altered under cyclic loading and unloading. In order to investigate the effects of confining pressure on energy evolution and mechanical parameters, cyclic loading and unloading experiments were performed for granite under six different confining pressures. The experiment revealed the confining pressure effect on variation and allocation pattern of energy and mechanical characteristics. Four characteristic energy parameters, namely, storage energy rock, storage energy limit, energy storage ratio, and energy dissipation ratio, were proposed to describe energy storage and dissipation properties of rock. Elastic modulus and dissipation ratio presented a downward “U” and “U”-shaped trends, respectively, with loading and unloading cycles, while Poisson’s ratio increased linearly at the same time. Elastic energy was accumulated mainly before peak stress, while the energy dissipation and release were dominant after the peak strength. As the confining pressure increased, efficiency of energy accumulation and storage limit improved. An exponential function was proposed to express the relationship between the energy storage limit and confining pressure. Dissipation energy increased nonlinearly with the strain, and the volume dilatancy point defined the turning point from a relatively slow growth to an accelerated growth of dissipation energy. The dilatancy point can be used as an important indication for the rapid development of dissipation energy.

Magnesium alloys exhibit significant inelastic behavior during unloading, especially when twinning and detwinning are involved. It is commonly accepted that noteworthy inelastic behavior will be observed during unloading if twinning occurs during previous loading. However, this phenomenon is not always observed for Mg sheets with strong rolled texture. Therefore, the inelasticity of AZ31B rolled sheets with different rolled textures during cyclic loading-unloading are investigated by elastic viscoplastic self-consistent polycrystal plasticity model. The incorporation of the twinning and detwinning model enables the treatment of detwinning, which plays an important role for inelastic behavior during unloading. The effects of texture, deformation history, and especially twinning and detwinning on the inelastic behaviors are carefully investigated and found to be remarkable. The simulated results are in agreement with the available experimental observations, which reveals that the inelastic behavior for strongly rolled sheets is very different than the extruded bars.
