A double-yield-surface plasticity theory for transversely isotropic rocks
We present a double-yield-surface plasticity theory for transversely isotropic rocks that distinguishes between plastic deformation through the solid matrix and localized plasticity along the weak bedding planes. A recently developed anisotropic modified Cam-Clay model is adopted to model the plastic response of the solid matrix, while the Mohr–Coulomb friction law is used to represent the sliding mechanism along the weak bedding planes. For its numerical implementation, we derive an implicit return mapping algorithm for both the semi-plastic and fully plastic loading processes, as well as the corresponding algorithmic tangent operator for finite element problems. We validate the model with triaxial compression test data for three different transversely isotropic rocks and reproduce the undulatory variation of rock strength with bedding plane orientation. We also implement the proposed model in a finite element setting and investigate the deformation of rock surrounding a borehole subjected to fluid injection. We compare the results of simulations using the proposed double-yield-surface model with those generated using each single yield criterion to highlight the features of the proposed theory.
