Outline of Final Research Achievements

The fault slip has been considered as the rate- and state dependent friction in the seismology. In this research work, the Slide-Hold-Slide triaxial on sedimentary rock has been carried out and the friction law has been reconsidered and re-estimated as the interaction of the dilatancy behavior and pore pressure (effective stress). A continuum constitutive model for rocks incorporating the healing and decay of structure considering variable strength and dilatancy based on critical state theory has been developed. The proposed model is verified with experimental slide-hold-slide triaxial tests on soft sedimentary rock and the potential applications of the proposed model in the numerical simulation of faulting have been discussed.
