description | The objective of this paper is to investigate the complete process of dynamic crack propagation in brittle materials under different loading rates. By using Improved Single Cleavage Semi-Circle (ISCSC) specimens and Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar equipment, experiments were conducted, with the fracture phenomenon and crack propagation of tight sandstone investigated. Meanwhile, the process of crack propagation behaviour was simulated. Moreover, with the experimental−numerical method, the crack propagation dynamic stress intensity factor (DSIF) was also calculated. Then, the crack propagation toughness of tight sandstone under different loading rates was investigated and illustrated elaborately. Investigation results demonstrate that ISCSC specimens can achieve the crack arrest position unchanged, and the numerical simulation could effectively deduce the actual crack propagation, as their results were well matched. During crack propagation, the crack propagation DSIF in the whole process increases with the rising loading rate, and so does the crack propagation velocity. Several significant dynamic material parameters of tight sandstone are also given, for engineering reference. |
