It is very important to clarify the optimization method of the rock-like material ratio for accurately characterizing mechanical properties similar to the original rock. In order to explore the optimal ratio of rock-like materials in gneissic granite, the water-paste ratio, iron powder content and coarse sand content were selected as the influencing factors of the ratio. An orthogonal test design and sensitivity analysis of variance were used to obtain the significant influencing factors of the ratio factors on seven macroscopic mechanical parameters, including compressive strength , tensile strength , shear strength , elastic modulus , Poisson's ratio , internal friction angle and cohesion A multivariate linear regression equation was constructed to obtain the quantitative relationship between the significant ratio factors and the macroscopic mechanical parameters. Finally, a rock-like material ratio optimization program based on genetic algorithm inversion was written. The results show that the water-paste ratio had extremely significant effects on , , , , and The iron powder content had a highly significant effect on , , and , and it had a significant effect on and . Coarse sand content had a significant effect on , and The multiple linear regression model has good reliability after testing, which can provide theoretical support for predicting the macroscopic mechanical parameters of rock-like materials to a certain extent. After testing, the ratio optimization program works well. When the water-paste ratio is 0.5325, the iron powder content is 3.975% and the coarse sand content is 15.967%, it is the optimal ratio of rock-like materials.

This study aims to investigate the mechanical properties and energy characteristics of coal-rock combinations during uniaxial compression, specifically focusing on variations in interface inclination angles. Each of the stress-strain curves of the CRC (Coal-Rock-Like Material Combination) with varying interface inclination angles were obtained using the DYD-10 universal testing machine and a high-definition camera system. Subsequently, the energy of the CRC was calculated using a specific formula.

The shear failure of rock masses is one of the primary causes of underground engineering instability. The shear mechanical behavior of rocks at different sizes is of great significance for studying the shear failure pattern of engineering rock masses. However, due to the presence of various joints and defects in natural rocks, the obtained rock specimens exhibit significant discreteness, making it difficult to customize specimen sizes for size effect studies.

Understanding fracture mechanics in rock-like materials under compression-shear condition is critical for predicting failure mechanisms in various engineering applications, such as mining and civil infrastructure. This study conducted uniaxial compression tests on cubic gypsum specimens of varying sizes (side lengths of 75 mm, 100 mm, 125 mm, and 150 mm) and crack inclination angles (ranging from 0° to 90°) to assess the size effect on fracture behavior. The effects of specimen size and crack inclination on fracture characteristics, including strength, failure mode, and crack initiation angle, were analyzed based on the maximum tangential stress (MTS) criterion and the generalized maximum tangential stress (GMTS) criterion, with relative critical size (α) and relative openness ().

This study investigates the synthesis and characterization of alkyne-based multilayered three-dimensional (3D) polymers, which exhibit a subtle aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomenon. The polymers demonstrate significant potential as fluorescent probes for the selective detection of chromium (VI) ions (Cr⁺), showcasing their utility in environmental sensing applications. Additionally, the circular dichroism (CD) spectra reveal a pronounced cotton effect, indicative of chiral properties, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dynamic light scatting (DLS) analysis reveal a distinctive rock-like surface morphology and Cr sensitive anti-aggregation.

Underground surrounding rock engineering displays unique mechanical properties after being subjected to disturbance loads. In this study, the self-developed CX-8568 impact-disturbance surrounding rock test system was utilized to conduct dynamic tests on gypsum specimens subjected to different lateral pressures. The results show that the presence of lateral pressure enhances the specimen's ability to withstand disturbance loads, which shows higher lateral pressure results in a greater number of disturbance cycles required for specimen failure.
