A testing system to understand rock fracturing processes induced by different dynamic disturbances under true triaxial compression

In this context,a testing system to understand rock fracturing processes induced by different dynamic disturbances under true triaxial compression was developed.The system is mainly composed of a static loading subsystem,a dynamic loading subsystem,a specimen box subsystem,and a data measurement subsystem.The static loading subsystem uses low stiffness loss frame structure technology,which greatly improves the frame stiffness in the three principal stress directions(up to 20 GN/m)and ensures the demand of the disturbance experiment in both the prepeak and postpeak stages.The disturbance loads with frequency of 0e20 Hz and stress level of 0e30 MPa were applied using large flow parallel oil source technology characterized with high heat dissipation efficiency.For the disturbance loads with frequency of 100e500 Hz and stress level of 0e30 MPa,they were realized by using high-frequency and centimeter-per-second-scale low-speed disturbance rod technology.Three rigid self-stabilizing specimen boxes were utilized to provide support for the specimen and deformation sensors,ensuring the stability and accuracy of the data obtained.To verify the performance of the true triaxial test system,disturbance experiments were conducted on granite specimens.The results show that the experimental device satisfies the requirements of original design,with an excellent repeatability and reliable testing results.

Unsymmetrical load effect of geologically inclined bedding strata on tunnels of passenger dedicated lines

In order to study the unsymmetrical load effect in geological bedding strata for the Muzhailing tunnel on the Lanzhou-Chongqing passenger dedicated line in China, we investigated the deformation, mechanical response and pressure of the surrounding rock and the mechanical characteristics of bolts of the tunnel. The results suggest that open zones appear at arch and invert where joints open up, when layered stratum is horizontal, or when the dip angle of in- clined bedding is small. Open zones occur perpendicular to a joint. The failure mode is bending disjunction at the arch tain shear displacement, and lead to obvious geological bedding unsymmetrical load. The failure mode is shear damage. For the joint dip angle in the range of 75-90°, the failure mode is flexural crushing at the wall and vertical shear rup- ture above the arch. The restraining effect of two sides weakens for vertical dip. On the whole, shear failure instabilitytrend would occur and the tunnel collapses evenly. When the angle between the bolt and structure plane is greater than 23°, bolts can enhance the shearing stiffness of joint plane. Unfortunately, in the general purpose graph of tunnel for 250 km/h of passenger dedicated lines, the bolts have equal length and spacing. The rationale behind this is worthy offurther study. For inclined bedding, the surrounding rock pressure at the left wall is more than that at the right wall. In addition, lining is likely to be damaged at left shoulder and side wall. With the dip angle increasing, the unsymmetrical load gradually achieves symmetry. Asymmetry design for support is recommended to reduce the unsymmetrical load on lining disturbed by excavation.

Tunnel SAM adapter:Adapting segment anything model for tunnel water leakage inspection

Water leakage inspection in the tunnels is a critical engineering job that has attracted increasing concerns.Leakage area detection via manual inspection techniques is time-consuming and might produce unreliablefindings, so that automated techniques should be created to increase reliability and efficiency. Pre-trainedfoundational segmentation models for large datasets have attracted great interests recently. This paper proposes a novel SAM-based network for accurate automated water leakage inspection. The contributions of thispaper include the efficient adaptation of the SAM (Segment Anything Model) for shield tunnel water leakagesegmentation and the demonstration of the application effect by data experiments. Tunnel SAM Adapter hassatisfactory performance, achieving 76.2 % mIoU and 77.5 % Dice. Experimental results demonstrate that ourapproach has advantages over peer studies and guarantees the integrity and safety of these vital assets whilestreamlining tunnel maintenance.
