Influence of Bidirectional Impact Loading on Anomalously Low-Friction Effect in Block Rock Media by Liping Li, Weijun Li, Jupeng Tang, Jiaqing Lv

“…When the deep block coal rock is subjected to repeated strong dynamic impact caused by long-term excavation activities, the anomalously low-friction effect will occur, resulting in dynamic disasters such as rock bursts. Taking granite block rock media as research object and using bidirectional impact loading to simulate the dynamic disturbance of rock media, a numerical model was established. …”

Experimental Investigation of the Crater Caused by Hypervelocity Rod Projectile Impacting on Rocks by Yanyu Qiu, Songlin Yue, Mingyang Wang, Gan Li, Yihao Cheng, Zhangyong Zhao, Zhongwei Zhang

“…Based on the experimental results of steel projectile vertical impacting on granite targets, the relationship between the depth and the diameter of the crater is analyzed, i.e., h/D≈0.1∼0.2; it shows that the depth of the crater is much smaller than the diameter of the crater, and the crater seems to be a shallow dish. …”

Modeling of the Complex Modulus of Asphalt Mastic with Biochar Filler Based on the Homogenization and Random Aggregate Distribution Methods by Yushuai Wu, Peng Cao, Feiting Shi, Ketong Liu, Xuhao Wang, Zhen Leng, Zhifei Tan, Changjun Zhou

“…The experimental results indicated that the biochar can provide asphalt mastic higher stiffness than the conventional granite mineral filler. It was believed that the special porous structure of biochar providing a thicker coating layer of mineral filler increases the stiffness modulus of asphalt mastic. …”

Type I Fracture Toughness Test of Rock-like Materials Based on the Particle Flow Method by Ling Yue, Bangyong Yu, Chengxi Zhao, Fei Guo, Fei Huang

“…Three models with different strength parameters (group A, group B, and group C) were established for each type, in which group A parameters are obtained from the concrete model, group B parameters are applied for simulating marble, and group C parameters are for granite. The type I fracture toughness and the failure form of each model are obtained by conducting the numerical test, and the curves of load versus displacement of loading point are recorded. …”
