Taking the Zigaojian tunnel, Hangzhou–Huangshan high-speed railway, China, as background, the rock mass structure effect on smooth blasting quality was studied. Four rock mass structures were determined on the basis of the information collected on the tunnel site. Smooth blasting finite element models were established using LS-DYNA. The accuracy of the numerical calculation model was verified by comparing the overbreak and underbreak between the numerical simulation and monitoring. Orthogonal numerical test was used to study the rock mass structure effect through single factor and main effect analysis methods. With the decrease in rock mass integrity, the smooth blasting overbreak of tunnels with massive integrity structure, massive structure, layered structure, and cataclastic structure increased. For massive integrity structure and cataclastic structure, the peripheral hole spacing should be emphatically considered. Meanwhile, in massive structure and layered structure, the included angle and spacing of structural planes had a great influence on the smooth blasting quality. The research results could provide a reference to improve the quality of similar tunnel smooth blasting.
For an ultra-shallow buried double-arch tunnel with a large cross-section, the arching effect is difficult to form in surrounding rock, and grouting method is often adopted to reinforce the surrounding rock. Hence, examining the grouting reinforcement parameters is of great significance for potential failure and collapse prevention. The land part of Haicang undersea tunnel was selected as a case study; laboratory experiments, theoretical analysis, and numerical simulation were performed to determine the grouting solid strength and grouting reinforcement parameters. The effects of different water–cement ratios on slurry fluidity, setting time, bleeding rate, and sample strength were studied by laboratory experiments. A method was proposed to determine the shear strength parameters of grouted surrounding rock through the grout water–cement ratio and the unconfined compressive strength of the rock mass. Numerical simulations were performed for grouting reinforcement layer thickness and the water–cement ratios. The deformation and stability law of tunnel surrounding rock and its influence on surrounding underground pipelines were obtained considering the spatial effect of tunnel excavation and grouting reinforcement. The reasonable selection range of grouting reinforcement parameters was proposed. The initial setting time and bleeding rate of cement slurry increased with the increasing water–cement ratio, while the viscosity of cement slurry and sample strength decreased with the increasing water–cement ratio. The shear strength parameters of grouted surrounding rock were determined by the water–cement ratio of grout and unconfined compressive strength of rock mass before grouting. When the thickness of grouting reinforcement layer h = 1.5 m and the water–cement ratio of grout was suggested η = 0.85, the surface settlement, the deformation of the vault, and the deformation of the nearby pipeline all met the design. Moreover, the construction requirements were more economical. Research results can provide a reference for the selection of grouting reinforcement parameters for similar projects.
PC/ABS composites are commonly used in airbag covers. In this paper, uniaxial tensile experiments of a PC/ABS composite at different temperatures and strain rates were conducted. The results showed that the temperature and loading rate affect the mechanical properties of the PC/ABS composite. As the temperature increases, the yield stress decreases and the strain at the moment of fracture increases, but the strain rate at the same temperature has a relatively small effect on the mechanical properties, which are similar to ductile materials. The experimental results were applied to the Abaqus model which considered thermal effects and the exact Johnson–Cook constitutive parameters were calculated by applying the inverse method. Based on the constitutive model and the failure analysis findings acquired by DIC, the uniaxial tensile test at the room temperature and varied strain rates were simulated and compared to the test results, which accurately reproduced the test process. The experiment on target plate intrusion of the PC/ABS composite was designed, and a finite-element model was established to simulate the experimental process. The results were compared with the experiments, which showed that the constitutive and the failure fracture strains were valid.
