High Energy Storage

High pre-tension bolt is an effective strata control technique and is the key to ensure the stability of anchorage and roadway. Based on the performances of high energy storage tension rock bolts in different rock properties, this study proposed a constitutive model to describe the energy balance of anchor under uniaxial compression. UDEC was used to simulate the behaviour of anchor in coal under uniaxial compression and the results were analysed to study the rock mechanical properties, degree of damage and energy evolution. Simulation results showed that tension rock bolts can improve the mechanical properties and energy storage capacities of the anchor. The energy evolution was divided into three stages: (i) the external work was stored in the form of elastic strain energy ( U e ) in the anchor prior to the yielding strength; (ii) the elastic strain energy reached its maximum near the peak strength; (iii) energy was dissipated from fracture friction ( W f) , plastic deformation ( W p ) and acoustic emission ( U r ) during post-peak stage. The installation of tension rock bolts was more suitable for medium hard rock (e.g. sandy mudstone), whereas it was not effective for hard rock (e.g. sandstone).

The mechanical properties of rubber-like materials have been offering an outstanding challenge to the solid mechanics community for a long time. The behaviour of such materials is quite difficult to predict because rubber self-organizes into mesoscopic physical structures that play a prominent role in determining their complex, history-dependent and strongly nonlinear response. In this framework one of the main problems is to find a functional form of the elastic strain-energy that best describes the experimental data in a mathematical feasible way. The aim of this paper is to give a survey of recent advances aimed at solving such a problem.

Energy conversion and release occur through the entire deformation and failure process in jointed rock masses, and the accumulation and dissipation of rock mass energy in engineering can reveal the entire process of deformation and instability. This study uses PFC2D to carry out numerical simulation tests on single-joint sandstone under uniaxial compression and biaxial compression, respectively, and analyse the influence of joint inclination, length, and confining pressure on the meso-energy conversion process and phase evolution of jointed sandstone. Through analysis, it is found that the input meso total strain energy is transformed into meso dissipated energy and meso-elastic strain energy. Macroscopic and microscopic joint sandstone law is consistent with the overall energy evolution; and the difference is reflected in two aspects: (1) the microlevel energy evolution has no initial compaction energy consumption section and (2) the linear energy storage section before the macroenergy evolution peak can be subdivided into two sections in the meso-level energy evolution. Under uniaxial compression, the energy values at the characteristic points of the meso-level energy evolution phases first asymmetrically decrease and then increase with the increase of the joint inclination. The initiation point of jointed sandstone is significantly affected by the length of the joint, and the degradation effect of the meso-energy at the damage point and peak point weakens with the increase of the joint length. Comparing the data obtained from the PFC numerical simulation with the experimental data, it is found that the error is small, which shows the feasibility of the numerical model in this paper. Under biaxial compression, the accumulation rate of meso-elastic strain at the peak point of the jointed sandstone first decreases and then increases with the joint inclination angle. After the peak of jointed sandstone, the rate of sudden change of meso-energy change decreases with the increase of joint length. The conditions of high confining pressure will promote the meso-accumulated damage degree of the jointed sandstone before the peak, while inhibiting the meso-energy and the mutation degree of the damage after the peak. The higher the confining pressure, the more obvious the joint length and inclination effect characteristics of the elastic strain energy at the peak point of the jointed sandstone.

Abstract Aiming at problems of low energy storage efficiency and unstable energy output of existing accumulators, this paper proposes a novel constant pressure elastic strain energy accumulator based on the rubber material hyperelastic effect, which can store and release energy with steady constant pressure. Based on exergy analysis method, constant pressure elastic strain energy accumulator charging/discharging energy storage efficiency is analyzed. Then Mullins effect on the rubber airbag multiple charging/discharging cycles is studied. Finally, a test platform is set up to verify the energy storage efficiency, expansion and contraction pressure stability of the rubber accumulator during charging/discharging cycles. Compared with enthalpy analysis method, experiment results show that energy storage efficiency calculation by the exergy analysis method is more accurate. In more than 200 cycle tests, rubber airbag energy storage efficiency is always higher than 76%, and expansion pressure and contraction pressure errors under steady state are less than 2.92e-3MPa and 1.79e-3MPa, respectively. The results show that the rubber airbag can be used as an effective energy storage component, which is very meaningful for energy recovery in pneumatic or hydraulic systems.

Abstract This research aimed to establish an early-warning critical energy for coal instability based on the energy theory and acoustic emission characteristics of coal under triaxial compression. To obtain an early-warning critical strain energy indicating the increase in the risk of coal instability, conventional triaxial compression and acoustic emission (AE) tests were carried out on coal specimens taken from a 980-m-deep mine with initial confining pressures of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 MPa. Stress-strain relations, AE features, and energy evolution characteristics during triaxial compression were analyzed. It was found that the energy evolution and AE event count changes across different loading stages. With increasing axial stress, most of the input energy stored in the coal specimens was in the form of elastic strain energy and the AE event count was close to zero, indicating that the coal grains reach a state of balance. After the elastic deformation stage, a portion of the input energy was consumed by inelastic deformation. Once the stress level exceeded the volumetric compressibility–dilatancy transition stress, the AE event entered a period of relative quiet, and the rate of energy dissipation abruptly accelerated, indicating that the coal grains achieved another state of balance before THE instability or failure. The balance of the rock grains is broken again (AE event count and the rate of energy dissipation both increased dramatically), coal achieved the peak strength and instability soon. The point at which the dissipated energy ratio α increased rapidly or the starting point of a quiet period, indicates an increase in the risk of coal instability. The corresponding elastic strain energy accumulated within the coal can be regarded as a precursor to instability or strainburst. Accordingly, a fitting formula is presented to predict the early-warning critical energy for brittle coal subject to different minimum principal stress. The analysis results in this paper can be helpful in the assessment of coal instability risk.

The estimation of rockburst potential has attracted great attention in the field of rock mechanics and engineering. In this study, an original energy preservation index is proposed to evaluate the rockburst potential in view of the energy evolution characteristics of rock materials. To investigate the energy evolution during rock deformation and failure, a number of cyclic uniaxial compression experiments on five kinds of rocks were carried out. The results showed that the curves of energy evolution exhibited obvious stages and there were significantly different weakening degrees for different rock materials embodied by the decreasing degrees of the ratios of elastic strain energy to dissipated strain energy at the weakening stage. Then, the energy preservation index was further formulated based on the decreasing ratio. Furthermore, by analyzing the acoustic emission activities at the failure stage and failure modes of the five rock materials, the rockburst potential was analyzed according to the energy preservation index.

The Stability

Rock bolt support is an effective technique for controlling surrounding rock of deep roadway. The stability of the anchorage body composed of rock bolts and surrounding rock mass is the core in keeping the stability of roadways. In this paper, the UDEC Trigon model was used in simulating uniaxial compressive test on the anchorage body under different pretension loads. The energy equilibrium criterion of the anchorage body under the uniaxial compressive state was proposed. Furthermore, the fracture evolution and the energy dissipation during the failure process of the anchorage body were analyzed. Results showed that before the peak strength, the external work was stored in the anchorage body in the form of the elastic strain energy (Ue). After the peak, energy dissipated through three ways, including the fracture developing friction (Wf), plastic deformation (Wp), and acoustic emission (Ur). Based on the simulation results, the high pretensioned rock bolts can eliminate the continuous tensile fractures in the anchorage body, decreasing the damaging extent of the anchorage body and the energy that was consumed by the following two main approaches: fracture developing friction (Wf) and plastic deformation (Wp). Moreover, the surplus of the elastic strain energy (Ue) and the strength of the anchorage body can be improved. The pretension load had a positive relationship with elastic strain energy and a negative relationship with the anchorage body damage degree. Based on the above research, the transport roadway of the working face 6208 in the Wangzhuang Coal Mine selected tensile rock bolts to establish the high-performance anchorage body. The monitoring data showed that this reinforcement method effectively managed the serious deformation issue of the roadway surrounding the rock masses.
