The Meso-Analysis of the Rock-Burst Debris of Rock Similar Material Based on SEM

الملخص EN

In order to explore the specimen failure characteristics during rock-burst under different gradient stress conditions, in this paper, a novel experimental technique was proposed; a common series of tests under two gradient stress paths were conducted on rock similar material specimens using the true-triaxial gradient and hydraulic-pneumatic combined test apparatus.

And plaster was used as the rock similar material.

In the experimental process, several rock-burst debris with area sizes of 100 mm2 were collected, and the fractal dimensions of typical detrital section crystal contours were analyzed and calculated using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) method.

The results showed that the specimens’ failure characteristics which had been induced by the two gradient stress processes were various.

Also, the mesoscopic morphology of the rock-burst detrital section had effectively reflected its macroscopic failure characteristics.

It was found that the fractal dimensions of the crystal contours of the specimen’s detrital section had fractal characteristics, and the box-counting dimension based on the SEM image could quantitatively describe the rock-burst failure characteristics.

Furthermore, under the same magnification, the fractal dimensions of the crystal contours of the splitting failures were found to be relatively smaller than those of the shearing failures.
