Damage Strengthening Constitutive Model of Cemented Paste Backfill by Kangli Cheng, Bingbing Tu, Lang Liu, Bo Zhang, Huafu Qiu

“…In order to consider the influence of mesoscopic characteristics of materials on the constitutive model of cemented paste backfill (CPB), the uniaxial compression variables and the damage constitutive model, considering the influence of porosity and pore size of filling materials, were derived based on the strain equivalence principle and Weibull probability distribution function. The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) tests and unconfined compression strength (UCS) tests were carried out on 8 groups of CPB specimens with different slurry concentrations and cement-tailings ratios. …”
