The least absolute deviation is used as a metric to analyze the applicability of five yield criteria, to describe the yield characteristics of coal based on triaxial compressive strength tests on natural, water-saturated, and seepage coal samples with the presence of pore water. The results show that the strength of coal exhibits nonlinear characteristics with the increase of confining pressure, which the linear Coulomb criterion fails to authentically describe. Although the parabolic Mohr criterion can describe the nonlinearity feature more decently than the linear yield criterion, the fitting error is significant, and the uniaxial compressive strength of coal is overestimated. The Hoek-Brown criterion, quadratic polynomial criterion, and exponential criterion yield decent fitting quality for the coal rock. In particular, the exponential strength criterion can accurately reflect the actual uniaxial compressive strength of the rock. However, the differential principle yield stress for an infinite confining pressure calculated from the exponential strength criterion is lower than the measured value. Furthermore, by employing effective stress principle to analyze the yield criteria for the saturated and seepage coal samples, one can find that the quadratic polynomial criterion and the exponential criterion can also reflect the changes of yield characteristics during the fluid-solid coupling triaxial compression test.

In order to study the influence of different confining pressures on the stability and airtightness of dolomite underground gas storage, a permeability test under hydrostatic confining pressure, conventional triaxial compression test and gas–solid coupling test under triaxial compression were carried out on MTS815 test machine. During the tests, an acoustic emission (AE) monitoring system was also employed to estimate the rock damage. The experimental results showed that the relationships between permeability, porosity and hydrostatic confining pressure were exponential function and power function, respectively. Increasing confining pressure reduced the porosity and permeability of dolomite, and increased its triaxial compressive strength, but the addition of nitrogen reduced the compressive strength of dolomite by 10~30%, the higher the confining pressure, the smaller the difference. Compared with the maximum permeability under 15 MPa, confining pressure in the gas–solid coupling experiment, the maximum permeability under confining pressure of 30, 45, and 60 MPa is reduced by 42.0%, 84.4%, and 97.9%, respectively. In addition, the AE activity of dolomite decreases significantly with the increase in confining pressure, which also delayed the arrival of the AE active period.

To explore the mechanical properties of concrete under true triaxial static compressive load after sulfate attack, uniaxial static compression test and true triaxial static compression test at four stress ratios were carried out on concrete specimens immersed in 15% sulfate solution for 0–120 days by the integrated true triaxial static and dynamic load testing system, and the variation of performance indicators such as the strength and deformation of concrete under the coupling action of sulfate attack and complex stress state was analyzed. The results show that the uniaxial compressive strength of concrete increases at the beginning and then decreases with the increase of sulfate attack time and reaches the peak on the 30th day, with an increase rate of 16.57%; the strength of concrete under triaxial compression increases significantly, and the maximum triaxial compressive strength is 3.18 times of uniaxial compressive strength under the combination of 0-day sulfate attack and 0.2 : 0.8 stress ratio; and the deterioration of concrete under sulfate attack is more prominent at high confining pressure, and as the sulfate attack worsens, the sensitivity of triaxial compressive strength of concrete to lateral compressive stress is reduced. In conclusion, triaxial compression can significantly enhance the ductility of concrete by playing a role in restraining the deformation and cracking of concrete after sulfate attack.

Subjected to freeze-thaw cycles, the deformation of physical and mechanical properties is the main cause of engineering disasters. Based on the analysis of the results of triaxial compression test after different freeze-thaw cycles, conclusions are drawn that: under the certain freeze-thaw cycles conditions, with the increase of confining pressure, the triaxial compressive strength, elastic modulus and the axial strain increase gradually, indicating that the failure of rock changes from brittle failure to plastic failure; in the case of same confining pressure, with the increase of the number of freeze-thaw cycles, the triaxial compressive strength,elastic modulus of rock decreases and the axial strain corresponding to peak stress gradually increase. With the increase of the number of freeze-thaw cycles, the cohesion of grit is in the form of exponentially decays to reduce,the internal friction angle changes very little.

The experiment study on the air-entrained concrete of 100 mm cubes under triaxial compression with different intermediate stress ratioα2=σ2D : σ3Dwas carried out using a hydraulic-servo testing system. The influence of rapid freeze-thaw cycles and intermediate stress ratio on the triaxial compressive strengthσ3Dwas analyzed according to the experimental results, respectively. The experimental results of air-entrained concrete obtained from the study in this paper and the triaxial compression experimental results of plain concrete got through the same triaxial-testing-system were compared and analyzed. The conclusion was that the triaxial compressive strength is greater than the biaxial and uniaxial compressive strength after the same rapid freeze-thaw cycles, and the increased percentage of triaxial compressive strength over biaxial compressive strength or uniaxial compressive strength is dependent on the middle stress. The experimental data is useful for precise analysis of concrete member or concrete structure under the action complex stress state.

This paper presents a methodology for determining the uniaxial and triaxial compressive strength of heterogeneous material composed of dacite (D) and altered dacite (AD). A zone of gradual transition from altered dacite to dacite was observed in the rock mass. The mechanical properties of the rock material in that zone were determined by laboratory tests of composite samples that consisted of rock material discs. However, the functional dependence on the strength parameter alteration of the rock material (UCS, intact UCS of the rock material, and mi) with an increase in the participation of “weaker” rock material was determined based on the test results of uniaxial and triaxial compressive strength. The participation of altered dacite directly affects the mode and mechanism of failure during testing. Uniaxial compressive strength (σciUCS) and intact uniaxial compressive strength (σciTX) decrease exponentially with increased AD volumetric participation. The critical ratio at which the uniaxial compressive strength of the composite sample equals the strength of the uniform AD sample was at a percentage of 30% AD. Comparison of the obtained exponential equation with practical suggestions shows a good correspondence. The suggested methodology for determining heterogeneous rock mass strength parameters allows us to determine the influence of rock material heterogeneity on the values σciUCS, σciTX, and constant mi. Obtained σciTX and constant mi dependences define more reliable rock material strength parameter values, which can be used, along with rock mass classification systems, as a basis for assessing rock mass parameters. Therefore, it is possible to predict the strength parameters of the heterogeneous rock mass at the transition of hard (D) and weak rock (AD) based on all calculated strength parameters for different participation of AD.

Since mudstone interlayer has a big influence on the mechanic property of layered rock salt, and in order to research its law, the mudstone which strength is lower than pure rock is used as a interlayer to make the regular layer of salt formation, then both the uniaxial and triaxial compression test are carried out on the layer of salt formation. The result indicates: (1) As the thickness of interlayer increases the uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus of layer type salt decrease. (2) On the condition that the thickness of interlayer does not change, the more the interlayer number, the stronger the uniaxial compressive strength. (3) If the total thickness of interlayer is stable and the interlayer number is same, then as the distance of interlayer increases the uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus of layer type salt decrease. The result provides practical value and theoretic basis on the further research of the mechanic property of layered rock soil and on the analysis of the stability of Karst underground salt cavity reservoir.

Water injection in coal seams will lead to the increase of moisture content in coal, which plays an essential role in the physical and mechanical properties of coal. In order to study the influence of moisture content on the mechanical properties of soft media, the forming pressure (20 MPa) and particle size ratio (0-1 mm (50%), 1-2 mm (25%), and 2-3 mm (25%)) during briquette preparation were firstly determined in this paper. Briquettes with different moisture contents (3%, 6%, 9%, 12%, and 15%) were prepared by using self-developed briquettes. Uniaxial and triaxial compression tests were carried out using the RMT-150C rock mechanics test system. The results show that the uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus of briquette samples increase first and then decrease with the increase of briquette water, while Poisson’s ratio decreases first and then increases with the increase of briquette water. When the moisture content is around 9%, the maximum uniaxial compressive strength is 0.866 MPa, the maximum elastic modulus is 1.385 GPa, and Poisson’s ratio is at the minimum of 0.259. The compressive strength of briquettes increases with the increase of confining pressure. With the increase of moisture content, the cohesion and internal friction angle of briquettes first increased and then decreased.

In underground mining and roadway support engineering of coal mine, the coal and rock layers bear loads together; therefore, the deformation and mechanical characteristics of the coal-rock combined bodies are not the same as those of the pure coal or rock bodies. In this paper, conventional triaxial compression tests of coal-rock combined bodies with different height ratios were conducted. And the stress and deformation characteristics of coal-rock combined body were studied and the experimental results were analyzed with different strength criteria. The results show that the peak stress, elastic modulus, and strength reduction coefficient of coal-rock combined body are negatively correlated with the ratio of coal to coal-rock combination height and positively correlated with the confining pressure; the coal-rock combination shows obvious ductility under 10 MPa confining pressure. Under the conventional triaxial condition, the shear failure was the main cause of the lateral deformation of the coal body in the coal-rock combination, which was much larger than that of the rock body. The circle deformation value, volume strain value, and the deformation rate in the postpeak stage of coal-rock combination are much higher than those in the prepeak stage. Mohr–Coulomb and general Hoek–Brown strength criterion fit the experimental results well.
