The mechanical behavior of surrounding rock mass is key important to the water-sealed petrol storage caverns because of the two phase environment. To investigate the strength and damage mechanism of rock mass under petrol–water immersion circumstance, an elastic–plastic damage constitutive model is proposed. The deformation work of rock mass is derived according to the mixture theory and averaging methods. In order to further study the capillary action influence of petrol–water liquid phase on the strength and stiffness of rock mass, the plastic yield condition considering petrol–water circumstance is proposed. Then, the stress–strain increment expression under the influence of both liquid and solid phase is deduced through the consistency condition. Meanwhile, the damage conditions of the rock mass under tensile and compressive stress differ a lot, so the rock mass damage model under petrol–water circumstance is established combining the tensile and compressive damage criterion and the damage evolution law. The proposed constitutive model is adopted to simulate the mechanical property and damage evolution feature of rock mass under axial compression. The results suggest that the increase in the petrol pressure leads to the improvement of the axial strength for rock mass and meanwhile, the occurrence of damage is also advanced. In addition, the elastic–plastic property of the rock material has been well developed below the stress peak point during this process. Ultimately, the proposed elastic–plastic damage constitutive model was verified by making comparisons between the theoretical calculating results and experimental results.

Starting from the thermodynamics, model of frozen soil is studied by energy dissipation theory and the inside and outside the state variables is given under isothermal conditions. Damage of frozen soil is re-flecked by effective stress and damage tensor in Damage Mechanics. Dissipation function is in form of plastic dissipation function (DP yield criterion) and the damage dissipation function. And plastic dissipation function is coupled of the damage variable. Through the elastic-plastic and damage evolution, frozen soil incremental elastic-plastic damage constitutive model is made. And finite element scheme is given.

With complex mechanics character and under the action of compression and tension in tri-direction, rock will show coupled plastic-damage mechanism as its basic character. Phenomenological coupled elastic-plastic-damage constitutive model with internal variable is proposed based on thermal mechanics theory, elastic law and macro damage mechanics. Numerical experiments on this model and analyze the model character. The result shows that the coupling model could realize rocks softening behavior brought about by damage and strength enlargement caused by confining pressure increasing.

AbstractA 3D combined elastic-plastic damage constitutive model for wood is proposed within the theoretical framework of classical plasticity and continuum damage mechanics (CDM). The model is able to describe the various behavior of wood under loading, including the orthotropic elasticity, strengths inequality under tension and compression in each orthotropic direction, ductile softening under longitudinal compression, brittle failure under transverse tension, and parallel shearing, densification hardening under transverse compression. Hoffman criterion and a set of eight separate failure criteria were used to define wood yielding and damage initiation, respectively. Isotropic hardening was assumed after yielding and defined by an exponential type function. The constitutive model was implicitly discretized using backward Euler method, solved through the return mapping algorithm and implemented into ABAQUS through the user-defined material subroutine (UMAT). The proposed model was firstly verified by material property tests considering different stress states: monotonic and repeated tension and compression (in both parallel and perpendicular-to-grain directions), parallel-to-grain shearing, and the interactions between perpendicular-to-grain compression/tension and parallel-to-grain shearing, etc. Mechanical behavior of typical structural elements was further simulated to validate the proposed constitutive model.

Due to the earthquake of Yushu in April 14, 2010, Airport Road landslide No.3 deformed cracking, resulting in lower stability of slope, triggering landslides and other diseases. Selecting the section 2-2 (mileage K823 + 809) of Airport Road landslide No.3 as the calculation section, we use the ABAQUS finite element program to establish landslide numerical mode. The slip mass of landslide was simulated by the elastic-plastic damage constitutive model, and the bedrock was analyzed as Mohr - Coulomb constitutive model. Landslide No3 is analyzed for example, and showed that earthquake triggering mechanism elastplastic damage constitutive model can describe the landslide very well.

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.

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.
