Analysis of Micro-Evolution Mechanism of 3D Crack Initiation in Brittle Materials with Hole under Uniaxial Compression.

This article investigates the microscopic mechanism of crack initiation and propagation in three-dimensional embedded cracks in brittle materials containing circular holes. First, a method for the development of transparent, brittle materials is proposed. Second, UCS tests were conducted on transparent, brittle materials containing circular holes and internally embedded three-dimensional cracks.

Numerical Simulation Analysis of Fracture Propagation in Rock Based on Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics.

The mechanical properties of fractured rock have always been a focal point in the rock mechanics field. Based on previous research, this paper proposes improvements to the SPH method and applies it to the study of crack propagation in fractured rocks. By conducting uniaxial compression tests and simulating crack propagation on various specimens with different crack shapes, the characteristics of crack propagation were obtained.
