Abstract

The crack development characteristics and deformation evolution laws of magnesium slag-based backfill under uniaxial compression were systematically investigated through uniaxial compression tests combined with digital image correlation technology. The surface scatter images of magnesium slag-based backfill during the loading process were analyzed, and the mesoscopic surface crack extension mechanisms, such as the original destructive morphology, strain field evolution, and displacement field evolution of the backfill surface, were discussed in detail. The results indicate that the failure modes of magnesium slag-based backfill under different curing ages and magnesium slag grinding time exhibit similar shear damage characteristics. The horizontal strain field on the surface of the ground magnesium slag-based backfill displays speckled deformation concentration areas, while the vertical strain field presents continuous gradient deformation localization areas. The distribution of the color fields and the discontinuous displacement values of the cloud diagrams can be used to identify crack paths and assess crack development situation. The sudden change characteristics of the variance of the strain field during the accelerated differentiation stage can be used as a precursor index for predicting the crack propagation of the backfill. The research results can provide a theoretical basis for exploring the fracture mechanism of magnesium slag-based backfill.
