Abstract
In consideration of the influence of energy dissipation on the rock compression process, the traditional elastic stress-strain relationship was improved by adding the energy release rate. The microintensity of the rock was assumed to satisfy the Weibull distribution. The improved stress-strain relationship was transformed into a triaxial stress-strain model in consideration of the loading damage combined with mesodamage mechanics. The characteristic points of the stress-strain curve and the experimental data were utilized to calculate the distribution parameters of the rock under different conditions. The model curve was compared with the experimental data. Results showed that the stress-strain curve of the rock has peak points in the conventional triaxial compression test, but the radial peak of the rock was not evident in the unloading test. The energy of the rock under the loading path was smaller than that under the unloading path. The model curve exhibited a high degree of fitting with the experimental data, and its correlation coefficient was relatively large (> 0.90), which indicated that the model can clearly represent the actual damage and evolution law of the surrounding rock. Furthermore, the established model can also reflect the rock’s stress-strain relationship, which can serve as a practical guide for relevant applications. Finally, the distribution parameters also reflected the evolution law of rock energy and provided a method for the assessment of rock energy and damage trend.
