- Numerical methods of the evolution of pure shear bands are presented.
- Five types of shear band patterns spontaneously form under different conditions.
- The evolution of pure shear bands exhibits self-organization characteristics.
- The approach provided a way for researching mechanical origin of shear band pattern.
Numerical simulations with finite element method were carried out and five types of patterns of shear bands and their process of self-organization were obtained. The elasto-plastic theory of constitutive relationship with the non-associated flow rule, vertex-like yielding surfaces and strain softening of strength were adopted to describe the mechanical behavior of geomaterials of rock or soil. The non-symmetrical matrix due to the adoption of the non-associated flow rule was solved with the algorithm of dynamical relaxation of finite element method. The discrete or banded patterns of shear strain in the form of superlattice, parallel strips, super lattice turned parallel strips, rhomboid net and concentric rhomboid loops, were gradually formed as the loading increased. The mechanism of the structural pattern generation and the process of pattern self-organization in geomaterials of rock and soil were a process of mechanical equilibrium of stresses and the allocation of material deformation between the elastic sites and plastic sites. The approach provided a way for researching mechanical origin of shear band pattern.
