To numerically explore the effect of numerical parameters on rock static strength simulation, and determine the numerical mechanical parameters of microwave-treated basalts for future drilling and cutting simulations, numerical models of uniaxial compression strength (UCS) and Brazilian tensile strength (BTS) were established with the coupling of smoothed particle hydrodynamics and finite element method (SPH-FEM). To eliminate the large rock strength errors caused by microwave-induced damage, the cohesion and internal friction angle of microwave-treated basalt specimens with the same microwave treatment parameters were calibrated based on a linear Mohr-Coulomb theory. Based on parametric sensitivity analysis of SPH simulation of UCS and BTS, experimental UCS and BTS values were simultaneously captured according to the same set of calibrated cohesion and internal friction angle data, and the UCS modeling results are in good agreement with experimental tests. Furthermore, the effect of microwave irradiation parameter on the basalt mechanical behaviors was evaluated. © 2022 The Nonferrous Metals Society of China IS - 6 ID - scholars16661 KW - Hydrodynamics; Inverse problems; Microwave irradiation; Numerical methods; Rock mechanics; Sensitivity analysis; Tensile strength KW - Brazilian tensile strengths; Compression strength; Microwave- irradiations; Microwave-assisted; Microwave-assisted rock breakage; Parametric sensitivity analysis; Rock breakages; Smoothed particle hydrodynamic; Smoothed particle hydrodynamics; Uni-axial compression KW - Irradiation PB - Nonferrous Metals Society of China SN - 10036326 EP - 2018 AV - none N1 - cited By 1 SP - 2003 TI - SPH-FEM simulations of microwave-treated basalt strength ER -
