Mechanical properties and failure criteria of multi-joint rock-like specimens under compression-shear

This paper is aimed to study the influence of aggregate size and inclination angle of joints on the mechanical properties of rock mass. Mortars with two aggregate sizes were used to prepared joint specimens with different inclination angles. Meanwhile, the loading process was monitored by the acoustic emission system. The experimental results showed that the peak shear strength of the specimens increased with the increase of the aggregate size. The peak shear stress of the coarse particle specimen increased firstly and then decreased. However, the peak shear stress of the fine particle specimen exhibited an increasing-decreasing-increasing-decreasing trend. The acoustic emission changed with the loading of the specimen, and reached the maximum value after the peak shear stress. Rock shear fracture criterion was established according to Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. The stress intensity factor ratio at crack tip ( ) was found to be only related to the internal friction angle of the rock-like material, and the value of increased with the increase of the internal friction angle.
