    Numerical Study on Rock Breaking Mechanism of Supercritical CO2 Jet Based on Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics

    Xiaofeng Yang1, *, Yanhong Li1, Aiguo Nie1, Sheng Zhi2, Liyuan Liu3

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.122, No.3, pp. 1141-1157, 2020, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2020.08538

    Abstract Supercritical carbon dioxide (Sc-CO2) jet rock breaking is a nonlinear impact dynamics problem involving many factors. Considering the complexity of the physical properties of the Sc-CO2 jet and the mesh distortion problem in dealing with large deformation problems using the finite element method, the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method is used to simulate and analyze the rock breaking process by Sc-CO2 jet based on the derivation of the jet velocity-density evolution mathematical model. The results indicate that there exisits an optimal rock breaking temperature by Sc-CO2. The volume and length of the rock fracture increase with the rising of the… More >

    Structural Durability & Health Monitoring, Vol.13, No.4, pp. 379-398, 2019, DOI:10.32604/sdhm.2019.08192

    Abstract Rock slope kinematic analysis and rock mass classifications has been conducted at the 17th km to 26th km of USAID (United States Agency for International Development) highway in Indonesia. This research aimed to examine the type of rock slope failures and the quality of rock mass as well. The scan-line method was performed in six slopes by using a geological compass to determine rock mass structure on the rock slope, and the condition of joints such as persistence, aperture, roughness, infilling material, weathering and groundwater conditions. Slope kinematic analysis was performed employing a stereographic projection. The rock slope quality and… More >

    Modelling 3D rock slope with a single elliptic joint surface by a meshless method

    Xiaoying Zhuang, Yongchang Cai, Hehua Zhu.

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.20, No.3, pp. 81-82, 2011, DOI:10.3970/icces.2011.020.081

    Abstract Meshless methods have shown advantages in dealing with problems of moving interfaces such as crack propagation in rock. In Tongji University, meshless methods, the meshless Shepard and least squares (MSLS) method and the element-free Galerkin (EFG) method have been applied to slope stability analysis, especially for rock slope stability governed by a number of dominating discontinuities. Previous studies have focused on 2D problems where a joint surface is modelled as a crack line [1]. In this paper, the EFG method is extended for analyzing 3D rock slope with a single planner elliptic joint. Due to the increasing complexity in geometric… More >

    Theoretical Analysis on Effect of Anomalous Low Friction in Rock Mass Based on Block Model

    Li Liping, Pan Yishan, Zhang Mengtao

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.16, No.4, pp. 103-104, 2011, DOI:10.3970/icces.2011.016.103

    Abstract The block model of effect of anomalous low friction in rock mass was established based on plasticity kinetics and theoretical analysis. And the normal stress formulas of contact interface between rock stratum and roof on elastic stage and elastic-plasticity stage were presented. The theoretical analysis indicates that under dynamic loading, the normal stress of contact interface between rock stratum and roof on elastic stage and elastic-plasticity stage of simple beam both reduce, and the reduction amplitude are both great. The friction force of the contact interface reduces sharply, therefore the existence of effect of anomalous low friction in rock mass… More >

    Natural Boundary Element Method for Stress Field of Rock Surrounding Roadway with Local Short Supporting

    Shuncai Li, Zhengzhu Dong, Dan Ma.

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.16, No.3, pp. 93-94, 2011, DOI:10.3970/icces.2011.016.093

    Abstract Roadway with local short supporting is not only a common phenomenon in engineering, but also short of in-depth theoretical study. Existing literature on underground stress field theory of surrounding rock, generally gives the analytical solution of stress for the surrounding rock of roadway with uniform supporting or no supporting, but doesn't give a corresponding stress solution for local supporting or local short supporting. Based on the circular roadway local short supporting mechanical model, according to the boundary element method of bi-harmonic boundary value problem of exterior circular domain, the boundary integral formula of Airy stress function is deduced for the… More >

    Daobing Wang1,2, Bo Yu1,*, Dongliang Sun1, Dongxu Han1, Jingfa Li1, Hao Qin1, Peng Wang1, Xufei Yang1, Yajun Deng1

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.22, No.3, pp. 147-148, 2019, DOI:10.32604/icces.2019.04786

    Abstract Hot dry rock (HDR), which is usually buried depth in 3-10 km, contains abundant heat energy for heating the house and making the electricity. Hydraulic fracturing is an effective technology to develop the geothermal resources. In hydraulic fracturing, a large amount of cold water is injected to generate the artificial fractures in subsurface. However, in previous studies, the study on the mechanical properties of HDR under the combined action of triaxial stress and pore pressure is still in its infancy and an exhaustive investigation is lacking. In this study, we experimentally investigated the heat-treated HDR samples with the integrated consideration… More >

    Abstract An injector plays an important role in the process of an efficient combustion in liquid-rocket engines (LRE) because it affects the evaporation rate of liquid fuel through spatial distribution and atomization of spray droplets. This paper is focused on the injection performance of a small LRE-Injector by employing the spray characteristic parameters made up of the velocity components, mean diameter, turbulence intensity, span (width of drop size distribution), number density, and volume flux of spray droplets. An experimental investigation is carried out with the aid of a dual-mode phase Doppler anemometry (DPDA) according to the injection pressure variation and along… More >
