Triaxial compression tests were then conducted under various conditions. The mechanical properties and damage characteristics of composite paste filling materials are studied, and the damage evolution model of paste filling materials under triaxial compression is established, based on the deviatoric stress-strain curve generated by the progressive failure behavior of samples. Internal physical and chemical mechanisms of the evolution of structure and characteristics are elucidated and comprehended via the use of SEM-EDS and XRD micro-techniques. The results show that the fiber can effectively improve the ultimate strength and the corresponding effective stress strength index of the sample within the scope of the experimental study. The best strengthening effect is achieved when the amount of NaOH is 3% of the mass of the solid material, the amount of fiber is 5\u2030 of the mass of the solid material, and the length of the fiber is about 12 mm. The action mode of the fiber in the sample is mainly divided into single-grip anchoring and three-dimensional mesh traction. As the crack initiates and develops, connection occurs in the matrix, where the fiber has an obvious interference and retardation effect on the crack propagation, thereby transforming the brittle failure into a ductile failure and consequently improving the fracture properties of the ecological cementitious coal gangue matrix. The theoretical damage evolution model of a segmented filling body is constructed by taking the initial compaction stage end point as the critical point, and the curve of the damage evolution model of the specimen under different conditions is obtained. The theoretical model is verified by the results from the triaxial compression test. We concluded that the experimental curve is in good agreement with the theoretical curve. Therefore, the established theoretical model has a certain reference value for the analysis and evaluation of the mechanical properties of paste filling materials. The research results can improve the utilization rate of solid waste resources.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0299001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,28]],"date-time":"2024-05-28T17:44:16Z","timestamp":1716918256000},"page":"e0299001","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Study on triaxial compression performance and damage characteristics of fiber-reinforced ecological matrix cementing gangue gypsum fill material"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Qi","family":"Jiang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhigang","family":"Yin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-3084-211X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Hang","family":"Yin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Runbo","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0299001.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"32","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijrmms.2018.06.014","article-title":"In situ monitoring and analysis of the mining-induced deep ground movement in a metal mine","volume":"109","author":"K Xia","year":"2018","journal-title":"International journal of rock mechanics and mining sciences"},{"key":"pone.0299001.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"129","DOI":"10.1016\/j.enggeo.2018.12.028","article-title":"Engineering geology and ground collapse mechanism in the Chengchao Iron-ore Mine in China","volume":"249","author":"K Xia","year":"2019","journal-title":"Engineering geology"},{"issue":"2","key":"pone.0299001.ref003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"429","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01904446","article-title":"Geopolymers and geopolymeric materials","volume":"35","author":"J.
