Abstract
Microcracks are pervasive within rock in active fault zone or geotechnical engineering and strongly influence the dynamic characteristics of rock. Here we performed dynamic compression test of sandstone to clarify the effect of initial microcracks on the mechanical performance. The different initial microcrack density levels were generated by repetitive impact loading, which was quantified using an image process method based on scanning electron microscope. Then, the strength, fragmentation, fracture propagation and energy dissipation of sandstone with different initial microcrack densities were studied using Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar apparatus. Results reveal that the strength of sandstone decreases with the increase microcrack density at a given strain rate, while, the dynamic increase factor of sandstone increases with increasing microcrack density. The sensitivity of fragmentation fractal dimension and dissipated energy to strain rate depend on the initial microcracks density. Moreover, the fractal dimension of fragmentation becomes more sensitive to the energy absorption with the increase of initial microcrack density. The present results contribute to understand the evolution of active fault and safety evaluation of geotechnical engineering.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
