Abstract

When rock-like materials are tested under triaxial compression[1] ,two kinds of failure may happen,that is,ductile and brittle failures.The essential reason for rock failure is the relative displacement among mineral particles making up rock.Generally, rock failure can be either tensile or shear,which depends on the predominant mechanism when failure happen.Two distinct deformation mechanisms of shearing and volume dilatation are quantitatively analyzed in rock from the fundamental thermodynamics[2]. Their competition is deduced to intrinsically dominate the strength and failure behaviors of brittle rock. Both the intrinsic shear and normal strengths give rise to the critical mechanical energies to activate destabilization of amorphous structures, under pure shearing and volume dilatation, respectively, and can be determined in terms of elastic constants.
