Experimental data indicates that inertia-induced radial confinement has a definite effect on the dynamic strength of geologic-type materials. However, it remains unclear how a fracture process affects the inertia effect. In this study, we propose a mechanical model to investigate the inertia effect on the dynamic strength of geologic-type materials, with the consideration of crack propagation and the related degradation of their material property. According to the proposed model, the axial strain acceleration will enhance the confinement and retard the crack propagation of the sample. Therefore, the loading requires a longer time to reach a higher loading level at the instant of macroscopic fracture (strength enhancement). Concurrently, crack propagation will induce stress relaxation and weaken the inertia effect. The numerical analysis results indicate that the intensity of the inertia effect depends on the strain history. For a weak dynamic loading, the inertia effect is significant during the initial phase, when the axial strain acceleration is high and the total axial stress is low. However, with an increase in the total axial stress and decrease in the axial strain acceleration in the loading process, the inertia effect becomes weaker or even negative. This promotes the deformation and fracture of the specimen. Only when the dynamic loading is sufficiently high that the specimen fails in the strain acceleration stage, can the inertia effect be remarkable.
