Abstract

This paper describes a method for modelling the simulated transversely isotropic rocks. Series of physical and mechanical experiments have been used to obtain two materials A and B, which are chose to simulate rocks. Then the reasonableness of two materials are verified by comparing their properties to typical natural rocks. Based on this, a set of experimental apparatus has been developed for preparing the simulated transversely isotropic rocks. Uniaxial compressive tests are carried out to study the failure mode of the simulated rocks preliminarily. The results can provide a reference for researches in study of transversely isotropic rocks.
