Experimental tests show that CRLD anchorage transforms brittle failure into staged energy dissipation in rock-like materials, suggesting improved stability.
• This study first systematically investigates brittle-to-ductile transformation in CRLD-anchored solids. • CRLD anchorage regulates post-peak response and provides coupled strengthening–toughening effects. • Sudden brittle failure is converted into a controlled and staged energy-dissipation process. • The transformation is governed by confinement-induced strengthening and post-peak energy dissipation. • A concise suite of mechanical indices quantifies strength enhancement, ductility, and anchorage amplification.
