Abstrakt: To explore the law of energy evolution and the change of damage before and after specimen failure, the conventional triaxial compression tests (5, 10, 15, 20, and 30 MPa) of basalt fiber reinforced concrete (BFRC) with different fiber volume fractions (0, 0.2% and 0.4%) were carried out by MTS816 rock testing system, and the cyclic loading and unloading tests of BFRC with a fiber content of 0.2% were carried out. The experimental results show that the peak strength and strain of BFRC increase with the increase of confining pressure. Tensile failure occurs under low confining pressure, and shear failure occurs under high confining pressure. The best volume fraction of fiber is 0.2%. Under different confining pressures, the input energy, elastic energy, plastic properties, and dissipated energy of the samples first increase and then decrease to a stable level. The elastic energy and dissipated energy reach the maximum near the peak stress, while the input energy and plastic properties reach the maximum at the peak. At the same time, the damage increases continuously with the input of load under different confining pressures, indicating that the failure of the specimen is a process of energy accumulation.
