Abstract
The creep failure of rocks is related to its microstructure, external loading and time. A nonlinear yield model was introduced to describe the variation in the cohesion and friction angle with plastic strain and intergranular stress. The mechanical properties and creep characteristics of deep granite were obtained by indoor tests, and a variable radius particle clump model was constructed based on the particle flow method. The bond-weakening-friction-strengthening model was combined with the parallel bond stress corrosion method to establish the bond-degradation creep model of granite. The creep failure time, creep rate and tension and shear fractures number of the parallel bond stress corrosion model and the bond-degradation creep model were compared and analyzed to verify the applicability of the model. The fracture evolution law of deep roadway surrounding rock was studied based on the bond-degradation creep model. The results show that the rock failure characteristics and tension-compression ratio obtained by the variable radius particle clump modeling method are closer to the actual situation. Compared with the parallel bond stress corrosion model, the creep failure time of the bond-degradation creep model is shorter, more microfractures are generated during the failure process, and the numerical creep curves are more consistent with the test curves. The deep roadway vault shear failure and sidewall plate crack failure characteristics calculated based on the bond-degradation creep model are basically similar to the actual project situation. The bond-degradation creep model can better simulate the creep damage process of rocks under high stress, and is more suitable for analyzing the fracture evolution law of surrounding rock in deep hard rock cavern.
