含节理岩块单轴受压试验三维离散元数值模拟

3D-DEM numerical simulation for jointed rock under uniaxial press loading

采用三维离散元方法,模拟含节理岩块的单轴受压试验。并针对节理空间分布,给出了解析解与数值计算比较的结果,验证了数值模拟的正确性。当节理正交时,离散元与有限元的计算结果一致。计算结果定量地说明了岩体的各向异性和尺寸效应。

Discrete element method (DEM) based numerical simulation is conducted for the jointed rock under uniaxial press loading. The simulation results have a good agreement with the theoretical results obtained by analyzing the space parameters of joints, which proved the correctness of DEM numerical simulation. The results of DEM agree well with the one of FEM when joints are crosscut each other. The computation results showed quantitatively the anisotropy and size effect of jointed rock.
