Kurzfassung:
The creep associated with unloading surrounding rock during the excavation of deep tunnels seriously affects the stability of the tunnel, and a high seepage pressure will aggravate the strength attenuation and structural deterioration of the surrounding rock. Based on the background of the excavation-induced unloading of the surrounding rock of a deeply buried granite tunnel with high seepage pressure, in this paper we carry out a triaxial unloading seepage creep test that considers the effects of both excavation disturbance and seepage pressure. We also analyze the mechanism of unloading and seepage pressure leading to sample failure and construct a fractional creep damage constitutive model that considers the unloading effect. The results include the following findings, firstly, seepage pressure will affect the creep deformation of rock for a long time, and the circumferential expansion of the granite creep process is more obvious than the axial expansion. Secondly, a high seepage pressure will reduce the rock bearing capacity. Under 0, 2 and 4 MPa seepage pressures, the long-term strength of the samples are 193.7 MPa, 177.5 MPa and 162.1 MPa, respectively. Thirdly, the rock damage factor increases with increasing seepage pressure, time and deviatoric stress. Finally, the rationality of a fractional-order model that considers the effect of unloading and seepage is verified by the test data. These research results may provide some reference for the stability analysis of surrounding rock during excavation in environments under high-stress and high-seepage-pressure.
