低温条件下边坡岩石动态力学特性实验研究

Experimental study on the dynamic mechanical characteristics of slope rock under low-temperature conditions

  • 摘要: 我国多年冻结区和季节性冻结区面积广泛,在这些地区进行工程建设和矿产资源开采必须考虑特殊的地质和气候条件,其中寒区边坡的稳定性问题值得研究。以位于西藏自治区的玉龙铜矿为例,矿区平均海拔约4000 m,最冷月日平均最低气温约−20 ℃,冻结期长,边坡稳定性受冻融作用显著,冻结岩层给爆破开挖带来诸多困难,制约了矿山生产效率。为研究低温条件下边坡岩石的动态力学特性,从西藏玉龙铜矿边坡钻取了大理岩试样,借助含低温控制系统的分离式霍普金森压杆(SHPB)实验系统,对常温干燥、常温饱水和低温冻结三种状态的岩样进行了动态拉压力学实验,以探究温度、含水量对岩石动态力学性质的影响。试验结果表明:(1)受低温水冰相变和岩石基质冷缩的共同影响,−20 ℃冻结岩样的平均单轴动态压缩、拉伸强度较常温下有所增大。其中,岩石基质的冷缩现象是造成冻结岩石强度显著提高的主要原因。四种应变率下,压缩应力分别增大1.30、1.62、1.41、1.43倍,拉伸应力分别增大1.36、1.28、1.22和1.29倍;(2) 受孔隙水软化影响,饱水岩样动态强度小于干燥岩样,因此同一应变率下的实验数据满足规律,即冻结岩样强度最高,干燥次之,饱水最低;(3)相同应变率下,饱水大理石的动态冲击破碎时间最长,且随应变率增大下降速度最快,同时,在相同应变率下,冻结岩样破碎耗能大于常温耗能,随应变率变化增幅最大。

     

    Abstract: China has large regions that freeze seasonally or multiple times a year. Special geological and climatic conditions must be considered for the engineering construction and mining of mineral resources in these regions, and slope stability in cold regions merits study. Taking the Yulong Copper Mine in the Tibet Autonomous Region as an example, the average altitude of this mining area is approximately 4000 m, the average daily minimum temperature in the coldest month is approximately −20 ℃, and the freezing period is long. Slope stability is considerably affected by freezing and thawing, and frozen rock creates several challenges to blasting and excavation, thereby restricting mine production efficiency. To study the dynamic mechanical characteristics of slope rock under low-temperature conditions, marble samples are drilled from the slope of the Yulong Copper Mine. With the help of the SHPB experimental system with a low-temperature control system, dynamic compression and tensile mechanics experiments are performed on rock samples under normal temperature and dry conditions, normal temperature and adequate water conditions, and low-temperature freezing conditions to explore the influence of temperature and water content on rock dynamic mechanical properties. The experimental results show that (1) the average uniaxial dynamic compression and tensile strength of frozen rock samples at −20 ℃ are increased compared with those at room temperature under the joint influence of water/ice phase transformation at low temperature and rock matrix cold shrinkage. Among these phenomena, the latter is the main reason that the strength of frozen rock increases substantially. Under four strain rates, the compressive stress increased by 1.30, 1.62, 1.41, and 1.43 times, and the tensile stress increased by 1.36, 1.28, 1.22, and 1.29 times, respectively. (2) Under the influence of pore water softening, a saturated rock sample has less dynamic strength than a dry rock sample. Therefore, the experimental data under the same strain rate show that the strength of a rock sample follows the order of frozen > dry > saturated. (3) For a given strain rate, the dynamic impact crushing time of saturated marble is the longest, and the decrease with increasing strain rate is the fastest. For a given strain rate, the crushing energy consumption is larger for a rock sample at freezing temperature than at normal temperature and increases greatly with increasing strain rate.
