Acoustic Emission and Damage Characteristics of Anthracite Under Different Conditions

Year: 2021
Type: article
Abstract: Acoustic emission (AE) can be used to observe the process of coal fracture propagation. Based on a press and acoustic-emission platform, the damage and acoustic-emission characteristics of anthracite with different loading rates, water amounts and sizes were studied. The results show that there is less acoustic emission in the initial compression stage of coal; acoustic emission is more active in the transition from elastic deformation to plastic deformation, which is manifested in the following aspects: the faster the loading rate, the higher is the number of acoustic-emission events; the peak count of acoustic emissions of a saturated-coal sample is significantly lower than that of a natural-coal sample. Coal samples and large coal samples emit even more sounds. Based on the normalization of acoustic-emission counts, the relationship between damage variables and stress-strain is studied, and it is characterized by an initial slow increase, followed by a rapid increase; however, different factors have a great influence on the damage-characteristic curve. The research results have a certain guiding significance for the coal and rock disaster prediction.
