Abstract: |
To investigate the effects of preexisting flaws with different geometries, including flaw inclination angle and ligament angle on dynamic strength, deformation properties, and fracture evolution of rock materials, a series of dynamic impact tests were conducted on green sandstone specimens containing double elliptical flaws using a 75 mm diameter split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) testing device with a high-speed camera recording in real time. The experimental results show that dynamic strength of specimens with different flaw angles is reduced between 5.91% and 39.92% but from 18.50% to 28.44% for specimens with different ligament angles, indicating that the effect of the flaw angle on the dynamic strength is more significant than that of the ligament angle. However, the dynamic deformation properties are influenced greatly by the ligament angle. Macroscale cracks mostly initiate at or near the flaw tips and then propagate in different paths with varying flaw geometries, leading to the ultimate failure in five typical modes based on the crack coalescence. Shear crack coalescence and tensile crack coalescence are identified through both macroscopic fracturing photos taken by the high-speed camera and microscopic surface morphology obtained by the scanning electron microscope (SEM). |
