Damage evolution and constitutive model of the rock masses with non-penetrating cracks under repeated impact loading.

ABSTRACT: A large number of cracks exist in natural rock masses, which significantly affects the stability of surrounding rocks in engineering under impact loading. Repeated impact tests by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar are performed on non-penetrating cracked granite specimens with different prefabricated-crack inclination angles (0, 30, 45, 60, and 90°). The damage evolution law of cracked rock under repeated impact loading is investigated. Macroscopic damage variables considering geometric and mechanical parameters of cracks are proposed. Further, a constitutive model for the impact loading test is developed based on the coupling damage. It has been found that, the impact resistance of fractured rock first decreases and then increases with the increased prefabricated-crack inclination angle. The i
