Microseismic monitoring technology can start from the most initial stage of rock deformation and track and monitor the progressive failure process of rock mass from the fracture of rock blocks to the instability of rock mass. Thus, the scientific nature of monitoring work is greatly promoted, and the accuracy and advance of the prediction of engineering and geological disasters are improved. In this paper, the fracture and instability of rock can be analyzed by analyzing the microseismic signals produced by rock failure; The location of microseismic source can be determined by multipoint synchronous data acquisition to determine the time when each sensor (at least 5) receives microseismic signals; Combined with practical engineering experience for underground engineering in growth, heading tunnel, put forward only sensor arrangement to take mobile, follow the semienclosed layout network. We hope to give some reference to the researchers who are concerned with microseismic monitoring technology.

Accurate simulation of the failure process of hard brittle surrounding rockmass is very important for the analysis and control of the structural stability in deep underground engineering. In order to simulate the progressive failure process of the hard brittle surrounding rockmass, a continuous discontinuous deformation analysis method that couples the finite element and discrete element is adopted. Taking the URL test tunnel in Canada as an engineering case, the constitutive model of the contact considering the effects of cohesion weakening and friction strengthening is applied, and the 2D approximation to 3D excavation by applying elastic modulus reduction technology is adopted to simulate the range and depth of crack growth of the surrounding rockmass. Then, the comparison between simulated results and on-site monitoring results is performed, which shows good consistency. At the same time, the key factors in the numerical simulation of progressive failure in hard brittle rockmass are identified, including the number of elements, excavation effects, and constitutive models. The results show that the constitutive model determines the basic form of crack propagation, but in order to accurately simulate the progressive propagation of cracks, the number of elements must be sufficient enough and the effects of 3D excavation must be considered. The analysis accurately simulates the progressive failure characteristics of hard brittle surrounding rockmass under high stress, achieving the purpose of reasonably grasping the degree of damage to the surrounding rockmass, and provides technical reference and support on how to accurately simulate the failure of hard brittle surrounding rockmass using the finite discrete element method.

The rockburst disaster in the hard rock caused by excavation and unloading of deep underground caverns threatens the safety of engineering construction. In recent years, the microseismic monitoring technology, which can dynamically monitor the whole process of progressive failure of rock mass in real time, has been widely used in rockburst monitoring and early warning of underground engineering. In view of the slight rockburst in local surrounding rock during the excavation of underground powerhouse of Huanggou Pumped Storage Power Station, a rockburst microseismic monitoring system is constructed. And through the analysis of the temporal and spatial activity of microseisms during the monitoring period, the potential risk areas of rockbursts are identified and delineated. The monitoring results show that the microseismic system can effectively capture the blasting and microseismic signals during construction. The microseismic activity is closely related to the intensity of field blasting disturbance. The potential risk areas of rockburst are the upstream side arch shoulder and the intersection between lower drainage corridor and workshop installation room. The research results can provide technical support for later excavation and support of underground powerhouse caverns of Huanggou Hydropower Station.

This present paper adopts a constitutive model for elastic damage of intermittently jointed rock mass, damage-evolution equations and a supporting model of damaged rock-bolt bar(DRBB) element to simulate effect of reinforcement. The results have indicated that the above method well describes the progressive failure process of the surrounding rock mass and the anchorage effect. The theoretical achievements are of referential value to designers.

Crack Faces

In this research, experiments and numerical simulations are employed to research the failure process of concrete. Fracture experiments on three-point bending (TPB) concrete beams with a prefabricated edge notch at the middle of the beam bottom are performed using a modified rigid testing instrument. The characteristics of the crack and section are analyzed, including the crack tensile opening displacement, crack length and width, and crack faces characteristics. Also, the full curves of the force-crack tensile opening displacement (CMOD) and force-deflection of the TPB beams with the prefabricated edge notch after breakage are obtained. The phase field (PF) damage model is applied to the mixed-mode and mode-I failure processes of concrete structures through the ABAQUS subroutine user defined element (UEL). The crack path and the full curves of force-CMOD and force-deflection obtained by numerical calculations are consistent with the experimental results and the calculated results of other researchers. The influences of the mesh sizes, initial lengths, and notched depths on the TPB beam of concrete are also analyzed.
