Carbonaceous Shale

To explore the mechanical properties and damage evolution characteristics of carbonaceous shale with different confining pressures and water-bearing conditions, triaxial compression tests accompanied by simultaneous acoustic emission (AE) monitoring were conducted on carbonaceous shale rock specimens. The AE characteristics of carbonaceous shale were investigated, a damage assessment method based on Shannon entropy of AE was further proposed. The results suggest that the mechanical properties of carbonaceous shale intensify with increasing confining pressure and degrade with increasing water content. Moisture in rocks does not only weaken the cohesion but also reduce the internal friction angle of carbonaceous shale. It is observed that AE activities mainly occur in the post-peak stage and the strong AE activities of saturated carbonaceous shale specimens appear at a lower normalized stress level than that of natural-state specimens. The maximum AE counts and AE energy increase with water content while decrease with confining pressure. Both confining pressure and water content induce changes in the proportions of AE dominant frequency bands, but the changes caused by confining pressure are more significant than those caused by water content. The results also indicate that AE entropy can serve as an applicable index for rock damage assessment. The damage evolution process of carbonaceous shale can be divided into two main stages, including the stable damage development stage and the damage acceleration stage. The damage variable increases slowly accompanied by a few AE activities at the first stage, which is followed by a rapid growth along with intense acoustic emission activities at the damage acceleration stage. Moreover, there is a sharp rise in the damage evolution curve for the natural-state specimen at the damage acceleration stage, while the damage variable develops slowly for the saturated-state specimen.

Understanding the acoustic emission (AE) characteristics of rocks that have undergone freeze-thaw cycling is of great significance for the use of AE technology to monitor the stability of rock masses in cold regions. A series of freeze-thaw cycling experiments and triaxial compression AE tests of granite samples were performed. The results show that, with an increasing number of freeze-thaw cycles, the P-wave velocity and peak AE intensity of granite show a substantial downward trend. The AE ringing counts during triaxial compression can be divided into three stages: abrupt period, calm period, and failure period. The overall change of the characteristic AE signal of granite samples that underwent different freeze-thaw cycles is the same. The AE signal during the destruction of granite occurs in clear dual dominant frequency bands. The peak frequency increases with increasing load time, and this trend becomes less clear as the number of freeze-thaw cycles increases. Overall, the peak frequency distribution tends to change from high to low with an increasing number of freeze-thaw cycles. The results provide basic data for rock mass stability monitoring and prediction, which is of great significance for engineering construction and management in cold regions.

Ae Signals

In the study of the acoustic emission (AE) characteristics of rock samples or coal samples under triaxial compression conditions, most scholars carry out relevant experiments by placing the AE detector on the outer wall of the triaxial chamber of the rock mechanics test system. Owing to the continuous obstruction of AE signals by hydraulic oil in the triaxial chamber and the frequent interference of external noises, the final experimental data cannot objectively and truly reflect the essential characteristics of AE of rock or coal under triaxial compression conditions. It is difficult to scientifically guide and accurately predict precursory information of rock’s or coal’s rupture and instability. Based on this, a series of improvements and optimizations were made to the original triaxial compression AE test method, which is based on the modification of the communication interface of the rock mechanics test system, a test head which can put the AE detector into the triaxial chamber and withstands high confining pressure, in order to obtain the true, comprehensive, and reliable AE signals. It is of considerable significance to the scientific determination of the precursory characteristics of rock’s or coal’s rupture and instability.
