Mechanical response characteristics and damage mechanism of water-containing mudstone under low strain rate dynamic loading by Guichen LI, Sen YANG, Yuantian SUN, Jinghua LI, Haoran HAO, Zeyu SHAO

“…Higher dynamic loading rates and strength tests show a high correlation between loading strain and plastic strain during disturbance, and the plastic strain is always greater than the elastic strain. ④ The percentage of shear damage in the whole loading process of mudstone increases with the increase of water content, in which the dynamic loading stage increases significantly from 6.94% in dry to 33.95% in saturated, and the macroscopic shear damage characteristics are gradually obvious. ⑤ Dissolution and subduction of water in saturated mudstone, fracture of cementation under higher-rate dynamic loading, and wide-scale displacement of particle cementation under higher-intensity dynamic loading are the fundamental causes of the deterioration of mudstone mechanical properties. ⑥ A mudstone damage model considering lateral stress and cyclic dynamic loading was constructed and verified using the stress-strain relationship between loading and unloading during the cyclic dynamic loading stage of specimens with different water contents, and the model parameter F0 has a more significant effect on the strength of mudstone specimens compared with the parameter m. …”
