Block-in-matrix-rocks (bimrocks) are very complicated geological masses that cause many challenging problems during the design and construction of engineering projects, such as parameter determination and landsliding. Successful engineering design and construction depends on a suitable constitutive model and reliable design parameters for geological masses. In this paper, the vibration attenuation signal of welded bimrocks was obtained and studied using resonance test technology. Combined with a uniaxial compression test, a constitutive model was proposed to describe the mechanical behavior of welded bimrocks. On this basis, the relations between the dynamic elastic modulus and the physical parameters of bimrocks were established, which included macroscopic mechanical parameters and damage constitutive parameters. Consequently, a new technological process was proposed to provide quick identification of the mechanical properties of welded bimrocks. The results indicate that the dynamic elastic modulus is highly correlated with the rock block proportion (RBP) and uniaxial compression strength (UCS). It is an effective parameter to predict the strength of the bimrocks with high RBPs. Additionally, the proposed constitutive model, which is based on damage theory, can accurately simulate the strain softening behavior of the bimrocks. Combining the resonant frequency technology and the proposed constitutive model, the complete stress strain curve can be obtained in a rapid and accurate manner, which provides a further guarantee of the stability and safety of underground engineering.

In this paper, a novel constitutive model of concrete has been proposed by introducing a new parameter, namely, cracking Poisson’s ratio (νcr), to account for the effect of localization due to cracking. By fitting the curve between the dimensionless strain (ε/εpr) and cracking Poisson’s ratio (νcr), νcr can be expressed as an 3rd order polynomial function of dimensionless longitudinal strain (ε/εpr). The constitutive model for the softening regime can then be proposed with the parameters of dimensionless strain and cracking Poisson’s ratio. Finally, Validity of the proposed model is verified by the test results of cylinder specimens of C30.

The heterogeneous lattice model is presented to simulate the behaviors of concrete, in which the concrete is regarded as random medium and the stochastic damage constitutive model is proposed. The parameters of the stochastic damage constitutive is identified compared with the experiment results of concrete under uniaxial tension and uniaxial compression.

Many underground reservoirs for storing water have been constructed in China’s western coal mines to protect water resources. Coal pillars which work as dams are subjected to a long-term soaking environment of concentrated salty water. Deterioration of the coal dam under the attack of the salty solution poses challenges for the long-term stability and serviceability of underground reservoirs. The evolution of the physical and mechanical properties of coal subjected to salty solutions are investigated in this paper. Coal from a western China mine is made to standard cylinder samples. The salty solution is prepared according to chemical tests of water in the mine. The coal samples soaked in the salty solution for different periods are tested by scanning electron microscope, nuclear magnetic resonance, and ultrasonic detector techniques. Further, uniaxial compression tests are carried out on the coal specimens. The evolutions of porosity, mass, microstructures of coal, solution pH values, and stress–strain curves are obtained for different soaking times. Moreover, a damage constitutive model for the coal samples is developed by introducing a chemical-stress coupling damage variable. The result shows that the corrosion effect of salty solution on coal samples becomes stronger with increasing immersion time. The degree of deterioration of the longitudinal wave velocity (vp) is positively correlated with the immersion time. With the increase in soaking times, the porosity of coal gradually increases. The relative mass firstly displays an increasing trend and then decreases with time. The peak strength and elastic modulus of coal decreases exponentially with soaking times. The developed damage constitutive model can well describe the stress–strain behavior of coal subjected to salty solution under the uniaxial compression.

The mechanical properties of mortar materials in construction are influenced both by their own proportions and external loads. The trend of the stress–strain curve in cracks compaction stage has great influence on the relationship between the strength and deformation of cement mortar. Uniaxial compression tests of mortar specimens with different cement–sand ratios and loading rates were carried out, and the stored and dissipated energies were calculated. Results indicated that the elastic modulus and strength of mortar specimens increase with the cement–sand ratio and loading rate. The energy dissipation shows good consistency with the damage evolution. When the loading rate is less than 1.0 mm/min, most of the constitutive energy at the peak point is stored in the specimen and it increase with cement–sand ratio. A simple representation method of axial stress in cracks compaction stage was proposed and an energy-based damage constitutive model—which can describe well the whole process of cement mortar under uniaxial compression—was developed and verified.

Mechanical properties of the rock in the cold regions are often affected by freeze-thaw cycles and loads. It is of great theoretical significance and engineering value to establish a uniaxial compression damage constitutive model of the rock under freeze-thaw cycles that can reflect the relationship between macroscopic and mesoscopic structural damage. In this paper, macroscopic and mesoscopic methods are combined with statistical methods to quantitatively analyze the damage degree of rock under freeze-thaw cycles and loads. Combined with the fractal features of the macroscopic image of the section, a fractal damage constitutive model considering the residual strength of rock is established. In addition, the model is subsequently verified by the experiment. The experiment shows that the mechanical properties of rocks subjected to freeze-thaw cycles and loads are determined by freeze-thaw damage variables, load damage variables, and their coupling effects. As the number of freeze-thaw cycles increases, the uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus of rocks decrease, and peak strain increases. By using the fractal dimension of the compression fracture surface as a bridge considering the residual strength of the rock, the constitutive model can better reflect the compaction stage, elastic deformation stage and plastic deformation stage of the uniaxial compression process of the freeze-thaw rocks.
