In this work, we first studied the thermal damage to typical rocks, assuming that the strength of thermally damaged rock microelements obeys a Weibull distribution and considering the influence of temperature on rock mechanical parameters; under the condition that microelement failure conforms to the Drucker–Prager criterion, the statistical thermal damage constitutive model of rocks after high-temperature exposure was established. On this basis, conventional triaxial compression tests were carried out on oil shale specimens heated to different temperatures, and according to the results of these tests, the relationship between the temperature and parameters in the statistical thermal damage constitutive model was determined, and the thermal damage constitutive model for oil shale was established. The results show that the thermal damage in oil shale increases with the increase of temperature; the damage variable is largest at 700°C, reaching 0.636; from room temperature to 700°C, the elastic modulus and Poisson’s ratio decrease by 62.66% and 64.57%, respectively; the theoretical stress-strain curve obtained from the model is in good agreement with the measured curves; the maximum difference between the two curves before peak strength is only 5 × 10−4; the model accurately reflects the deformation characteristics of oil shale at high temperature. The research results are of practical significance to the underground in situ thermal processing of oil shale.

By analysis of the microscopic damage mechanism of rock, a multiparameter elastoplastic damage constitutive model which considers damage mechanism of tension and shear is established. A revised general form of elastoplastic damage model containing damage internal variable of tensor form is derived by considering the hypothesis that damage strain is induced by the degeneration of elastic modulus. With decomposition of plastic strain introduced, the forms of tension damage variable and shear damage variable are derived, based on which effects of tension and shear damage on material’s stiffness and strength are considered simultaneously. Through the utilizing of Zienkiewicz-Pande criterion with tension limit, the specific form of the multiparameter damage model is derived. Numerical experiments show that the established model can simulate damage behavior of rock effectively.

Polypropylene fibers perform well in roughness enhancement and corrosion resistance. They can dissipate energy when cracks occur in concrete. Furthermore, they can improve the concrete tensile properties by synergistic work with it. To study the tensile properties of the multiscale polypropylene concrete, uniaxial tensile strength of 18 fiber reinforced and 3 plain concrete specimens was experimentally tested using the paste steel method. The test results indicate that both the strength and the peak strain can be substantially improved. Based on the results, a tensile damage constitutive model was proposed and implemented into FLAC3D for numerical experimentation. The numerical results are consistent with the experimental observations in general and some discrepancies are discussed.
