Dynamic Model and Mechanical Properties of the Two Parallel-Connected CRLD Bolts Verified with the Impact Tensile Test

Abstract EN

Dynamic model was theoretically established for the two parallel-connected constant-resistance-large-deformation (CRLD) bolts, and the theoretical results were experimentally verified with impact tensile tests on the CRLD bolts samples.

The dynamic responses of the double CRLD bolts were investigated under the impact loads with different intensities.

The theoretical analyses showed that (1) under relatively small loading the CRLD bolts deform elastically and the deformation finally returns to zero and (2) under the high impact load, including the stable impact load and unstable impact load, the CRLD bolts export structural deformation after the initial elastic deformation.

The deformation of the bolts eventually stabilizes at a certain amount of the elongation caused by the relative sliding of the sleeves and rebars.

The essential difference between the stable impact load and unstable impact load is that, under the stable impact load, no structural deformation will occur after the impact load ends; under the unstable impact load, the structural deformation will still occur after the impact load ends.

The obtained results are of theoretical implications for rock support design with CRLD bolts under the dynamical loading condition.
