Abstract In order to study the rock fracture mechanism and precursor characteristics, uniaxial compression experiments of red sandstone were carried out. Using acoustic emission technology and digital speckle correlation method as experimental observation means, the evolution characteristics of deformation field and acoustic emission index during rock deformation were studied. The results show that : (1) The deformation concentration of rock deformation localization zone is the main cause of nonlinear evolution of rock stress-strain curve. (2) The volume parameters of different types of cracks in rock acoustic emission change with the relative displacement rate and dislocation rate of deformation localization zone. (3) In terms of failure types, there are more high-frequency components of tensile fracture main frequency, more low-frequency components of shear fracture main frequency, and wider distribution of mixed fracture main frequency. In the time sequence, the spectrum distribution of acoustic emission signals is wide and the amplitude is small at the sudden change time. At the sudden change time, the spectrum distribution of acoustic emission signals becomes narrow, the amplitude increases, and the spectrum distribution of peak points is greatly narrowed. Therefore, it is considered that the spectrum distribution is greatly narrowed can be used as an early warning precursor.

Loading And Unloading

To explore the characteristics of rock deformation and failure under cyclic loading and unloading, the MTS815 rock mechanics test system and acoustic emission (AE) signal acquisition system were used to perform cyclic loading and unloading tests on red sandstone samples. The results showed that, compared with the uniaxial compression test, cyclic loading and unloading had a certain strengthening effect on the strength of the samples. The plastic deformation of the rock samples increased as the number of cycles increased. Based on AE signals, the cracking mode classification was analyzed on the basis of the average frequency and the rise angle of the waveforms. It was observed that the Felicity ratio gradually decreased with the increase in the stress level, which showed a cumulative damage effect. From the perspective of energy, the obvious increase of AE energy rate was mainly concentrated in the early and late stages of uniaxial compression, while the significant increase of dissipated energy rate occurred in the late stage of uniaxial compression. During the cyclic loading and unloading, most of the work done by external forces in the compaction stage and the elastic stage was converted into elastic strain energy, and dissipated energy began to gradually increase in the stage of stable fracture development. In addition, it was found that the damage evolution of the rock samples changed from slow to fast, and the dissipated energy ratio increased when failure was approaching.

The joint arrangement in rock masses is the critical factor controlling the stability of rock structures in underground geotechnical engineering. In this study, the influence of the joint inclination angle on the mechanical behavior of jointed rock masses under uniaxial compression was investigated. Physical model laboratory experiments were conducted on jointed specimens with a single pre-existing flaw inclined at 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90° and on intact specimens. The acoustic emission (AE) signals were monitored during the loading process, which revealed that there is a correlation between the AE characteristics and the failure modes of the jointed specimens with different inclination angles. In addition, particle flow code (PFC) modeling was carried out to reproduce the phenomena observed in the physical experiments. According to the numerical results, the AE phenomenon was basically the same as that observed in the physical experiments. The response of the pre-existing joint mainly involved three stages: (I) the closing of the joint; (II) the strength mobilization of the joint; and (III) the reopening of the joint. Moreover, the response of the pre-existing joint was closely related to the joint’s inclination. As the joint inclination angle increased, the strength mobilization stage of the joint gradually shifted from the pre-peak stage of the stress–strain curve to the post-peak stage. In addition, the instantaneous drop in the average joint system aperture (aave) in the specimens with medium and high inclination angles corresponded to a rapid increase in the form of the pulse of the AE activity during the strength mobilization stage.

The accuracy of the location of acoustic emission (AE) sources in the concentrator zones (central holes 5 mm in diameter) located at a distance of 40 mm from the receiving transducers during tensile tests of steel, aluminum alloy and composite flat specimens with dimensions of 550x50x4 mm was evaluated. Calculated speed dependence of propagation of pulses on the level of their amplitude and the partial energy of the high-frequency components of the spectrum is studied. With the threshold method of signal registration, the error in the location of AE event sources arising in the near zone of the receiving transducers at a distance 𝛥L<0.1 m can significantly exceed 10% relative to the base size (B) of the location area, when B<0.5 m. Moreover, with a decrease in the distance 𝛥L<0.05 m, the level of possible error will increase, reaching 20-30% relative to the basic size of the antenna array, when recording pulses with an amplitude level um<60 dB and a fraction of the energy of high-frequency spectrum components not exceeding 10%.

AbstractAcoustic emissions in the audio spectrum are reported from observations of laboratory experiments conducted on snow samples in uniaxial compression. A number of tests show the pattern of acoustic emissions to be a function of the rate of deformation. Over the frequency range 20 to 7 000 Hz acoustic emissions are associated with rates of deformation corresponding to brittle fracture of the snow sample. Though probably present, no acoustic emissions were detected from samples deforming plastically.
