The damage of brittle rock is induced by its microcrack growth which significantly affects the deformation and strength of rocks subjected to the compressive loadings. However
the relationships between microcrack growth and the variable shear properties(cohesion
internal friction angle
and shear stress) are rarely studied. In this study
the relationships between internal friction angle
cohesion
shear strength and micro-parameters at the peak point of stress-strain relationship are proposed
according to the stress-strain relationship triggered by crack growth and the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. By introducing the Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion
the theoretical expression is established for dynamic variations of cohesion
internal friction angle and shear stress along with microcrack growth or strain at plastic deformation phase of brittle rocks. Cohesion
internal friction angle
and shear stress firstly increase until to maximum values
and then decrease with the increasing crack growth or axial strain in brittle rocks under compressive loading
which is corresponding to the stress-strain constitutive curves in triaxial compressive tests. Finally
the rationality of the proposed theoretical expression is verified by comparing with the experimental results. Besides
the effects of friction coefficient between microcrack interfaces on the relationships between cohesion
internal friction angle
shear stress and crack growth or axial strain are discussed.
