Precursor Information

The objective of this article was to investigate the acoustic emission (AE) precursor information and crack propagation mechanism of brittle granite specimens containing a hole under uniaxial compression using AE and digital image correlation (DIC) techniques. The results show that the existence of the opening in the specimen leads to the degradation of the mechanical properties, and the stress-strain curve exhibits several stress drops. Each deformation stage of rock had different AE characteristics, so AE signals can be used to characterize the microscopic damage evolution of rock and predict the macroscopic failure process of the surrounding rock of the opening. The deformation field evolution process of the specimen containing an opening gradually develops from a uniform distribution to prominent local deformation, and the deformation of the local area near the opening is greater than that of other areas. The initiation of cracks begins around the opening, and the propagation of tensile cracks around the opening is primarily influenced by the nucleation and propagation in the strain localization area. The crack propagation evolution derived from DIC images can be combined with AE monitoring to accurately reveal the deformation and failure mechanism of the intact specimen containing an opening.

Acoustic emission technique is an important technique for monitoring crack propagation and failure process of rock, coal and concrete material. A uniaxial compression test with acoustic emission monitoring on coal and rock samples’ deformation and failure process were carried out. Failure precursor information of rock, coal and concrete material were studied through contrast analysis the experiment result include acoustic emission signals, strain, load correlation of sample inner crack propagation to failure process. The test provided necessary data to further understand on rock burst failure disaster. The test result provides a theoretical basis for further application of acoustic emission for prediction coal rock dynamic disaster, assessment rock and concrete structure stability and study rock concrete material failure process mechanism.

AbstractDisc coal samples with different water content were tested using the split Hopkinson press bar test system. Their dynamic tensile failure process was monitored via an ultra-high-speed digital image correlation system. The deformation trend and failure characteristics as a function of the water content were analyzed, and the water content effect on dynamic mechanical properties was investigated. The results demonstrated that the dynamic stress–strain curve of the coal samples consisted of four stages. As the water content increased, the coal sample brittleness degraded, while its ductility was enhanced. Quadratic polynomial functions can describe dynamic peak stress, peak strain, and loading pressure. Under different loading pressures, the dynamic peak stress exhibited a concave bending trend as the water content increased. The coal sample's dynamic tensile strength had a strong rate correlation, and the saturated coal sample exhibited the highest rate correlation. Under high-rate loading, the inertia effect and the Stefan effect of water in coal samples hinder the initiation and propagation of coal sample cracks, improving the coal sample's strength. The research results provide a basic theoretical basis for the prevention and control of rock burst in coal mines.

Microwave cutting glass and ceramics based on thermal controlled fracture method has gained much attention recently for its advantages in lower energy-consumption and higher efficiency than conventional processing method. However, the irregular crack-propagation is problematic in this procedure, which hinders the industrial application of this advanced technology. In this study, the irregular crack-propagation is summarized as the unstable propagation in the initial stage, the deviated propagation in the middle stage, and the non-penetrating propagation in the end segment based on experimental work. Method for predicting the unstable propagation in the initial stage has been developed by combining analytical models with thermal-fracture simulation. Experimental results show good agreement with the prediction results, and the relative deviation between them can be <5% in cutting of some ceramics. The mechanism of deviated propagation and the non-penetrating propagation have been revealed by simulation and theoretical analysis. Since this study provides effective methods to predict unstable crack-propagation in the initial stage and understand the irregular propagation mechanism in the whole crack-propagation stage in microwave cutting ceramics, it is of great significance to the industrial application of thermal controlled fracture method for cutting ceramic materials using microwave.

Red shale is widely distributed among the deep mine areas of Kaiyang Phosphate Mine, which is the biggest underground phosphate mine of China. Because of the effect of various factors, such as high stress, ground water and so on, trackless transport roadways in deep mine areas were difficult to effectively support for a long time by using traditional supporting design methods. To deal with this problem, some innovative works were carried out in this paper. First, mineral composition and microstructure, anisotropic, hydraulic mechanical properties and other mechanical parameters of red shale were tested in a laboratory to reveal its deformation and failure characteristics from the aspect of lithology. Then, some numerical simulation about the failure process of the roadways in layered red shale strata was implemented to investigate the change regulation of stress and strain in the surrounding rock, according to the real rock mechanical parameters and in-situ stress data. Therefore, based on the composite failure law and existing support problems of red shale roadways, some effective methods and techniques were adopted, especially a kind of new wave-type bolt that was used to relieve rock expansion and plastic energy to prevent concentration of stress and excess deformation. The field experiment shows the superiorities in new techniques have been verified and successfully applied to safeguard roadway stability.

Ultra-fine-grained (UFG) Cu shows little total elongation in tensile tests because simple shear deformation is concentrated in narrow regions during the initial stage of plastic deformation. Here, we attempted to improve the total elongation of UFG Cu obtained by equal-channel angular pressing. By making shallow dents on the side surfaces of the plate-like specimens, this induced pure shear deformation and increased their total elongation. During the tensile tests, we observed the overall and local deformation of the dented and undented UFG Cu specimens. Using three-dimensional digital image correlation, we found that the dented specimens showed suppression of thickness reduction and delay in fracture by enhancement of pure shear deformation. However, the dented and undented specimens had the same ultimate tensile strength. These results provide us a new concept to increase total elongation of UFG materials.

By molecular dynamics method, the tensile processes of nanosingle crystal copper with the crack front existence hole were simulated, and the effect of different hole size on crack propagation mechanism was analyzed. The results indicate that as the hole position remain unchanged, the hole diameter was more bigger, the atomic staggered and the crack tip deactivation were more obvious under tensile loads caused more dislocation glide appeared, meanwhile the number of slide-line was more and the trend of crack branch extend to hole position was more obvious.
