Deformation Characteristics and Energy Evolution Rules of Siltstone under Stepwise Cyclic Loading and Unloading

Uniaxial step cyclic loading and unloading tests on siltstone were conducted to investigate the mechanisms and evolution characteristics of rock deformation, including elastic, viscoelastic, and plastic aspects. This study proposes a method for separating dissipated energy into damage energy, which...
