Meso-macro analysis of microwave-assisted double-indenter impact on rock-like materials by Peng WANG, Zhongwen YUE, Shengnan XU, Dan GAO, Meng REN, Akang LI, Weijun LIU

“…This study takes grouted concrete as the research object and relies on the established macroscopic dual-indenter synchronous impact experimental system (DHPB) and mesoscopic scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Through theoretical derivation and experimental verification, it explores the variation laws of macro-specific energy consumption and meso-damage of concrete specimens under dual-indenter synchronous impact with different microwave radiation times, establishing a quantitative functional relationship between macroscopic specific energy consumption attenuation degree and mesoscopic damage mediated by critical strain energy density. …”
