Cyclic Loading Tests

This study deals with the viscoelastic properties of filled nitrile rubber submitted to cyclic loading conditions. Classic strain amplitude sweeps were first carried out on both a filled and an unfilled nitrile rubber. Tests were performed at two temperatures ambient and 80 °C. Some specimens were then subjected to a high number of cycles to study the variations in the viscoelastic properties and the sensitivity of the Payne effect to cyclic loading tests at several given strain amplitudes.

Cyclic Loading Tests

The mechanical response characteristics of rocks under cyclic loading conditions are crucial factors for evaluating and analyzing the stability of rock mass during underground excavation. In this study, based on fractal theory and a series of tests using the MTS815.02 rock mechanics test system, the classification and fractal characteristics of limestone specimen fragments are investigated. The results show that limestone specimens subjected to cyclic loading can generate more small-sized fragments than conventional compression, but the large-fragment-producing abilities of the two tests exhibit small difference. The mass fraction of the fragments in the cyclic loading test is obviously greater than that in the conventional test when the fragment size is less than 4.75 mm; however, only a small difference is observed between the cyclic loading tests with frequencies of 0.25 and 0.5 Hz. In the same type of test, a confining pressure is helpful in reducing the fragmentation of limestone specimen. As the size interval decreases, the shapes of limestone fragment transition from rectangular to long slice and then to square. The results also indicate that the confining pressure has a significant influence on the size-quantity and size-mass fractal dimensions of limestone fragments. The former has a positive correlation with the confining pressure, whereas the latter decreases with confining pressure. The conclusions obtained in this investigation can enrich the theoretical research on the failure response and mechanism of rock under cyclic loading conditions.

Cyclic Loading Tests

Underground gas storage (UGS) in depleted reservoirs affects caprock properties. The resemblance of Qom anhydrite outcrop with cutting obtained from a 2629 m depth was confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) results and scanning electron microscope (SEM) tests. The anhydrite specimens unconfined compressive strength (UCS) changed under static cyclic loading conditions, and also petrophysical properties, such as porosity and permeability altered under 10, 20, and 30 cycles of loading. The magnitude of loading ranged from 30 to 43% of intact anhydrite UCS. The loading rate used for cyclic loading tests was 0.004 mm/s. The samples’ UCS decreased between 3.5 to 23.9% under cyclic loading conditions. The study of specimens computed tomography (CT) imaging with porosity and permeability indicated the growth of cracks, the cracks did not initiate in all lengths of specimens, hence the incremental increase in porosity did not increase the permeability of specimens. Even being under cyclic loads, the permeability of specimens stayed lower than 10-15 m2 (0.001 mD) but the trend of pressure versus time for measuring permeability shows a higher drop in pressure due to changes in permeability. The study indicated that the CT imaging results are in good accordance with petrophysical findings.

E-glass fibre reinforced polyester matrix composite was investigated, which was made by pullwinding process. Round three point bending (RTPB) specimens were tested under quasi-static and mode I cyclic loading conditions. Load vs. displacement (F-f), load vs. crack opening displacement (F-v) and crack opening displacement range vs. number of cycles (ΔCOD-N) curves were registered and analysed. Interfacial cracks were caused the final longitudinal fracture of the specimens under quasi-static and cyclic loading conditions.

Mathematical Relationships

The mechanical properties of steel in the inelastic range can generally be described by mathematical relationships. Many such constitutive relationships have been validated by static or uniaxial cyclic loading tests. Very few models have been substantiated by test results under complex loading conditions. For that reason, the implementation of such models in general purpose structural analysis programs for steel structures under seismic actions, is in some cases complex and in others impossible. This paper is concerned with a uniaxial non-linear model for structural steel under complex loading condition and with damage accumulation. The Giuffré, Menegoto and Pinto model was taken as a basis for the development of this model. The accuracy of the proposed numerical model was drawn with uniaxial cyclic experiments. Some numerical simulations are presented in order to illustrate the capabilities of the model for use as a stress-strain relationship for steel under uniaxial complex loading conditions up to the complete failure of the material.
