The failure behavior of coal-rock combined body under compression-shear loading
SCIENCE PROGRESS(2024)
Abstract
As shallow coal reserves continue to deplete rapidly, deep mining has become an unavoidable course of action. In the process of deep coal mining, affected by blasting, mining, and excavation, the coal-rock interface often encounters the action of compression-shear composite load. The interface crack directly affects the stability of the coal-rock structure. Uniaxial compression experiments have been conducted on rock and coal-like material with pre-existing interfacial oblique cracks to study the crack propagation criterion of the rock and coal-like material interface. An image acquisition system is used to record the surface speckle field of the whole process of specimen failure. The strain fields and stress intensity factor of the sample at different times are obtained by digital image correlation. At the same time, the stress field near the crack tip is calculated. The results show that with the increase of loading, two strains of localization bands are formed on the surface of the specimen. One of the strain-localized bands starts at the lower tip of the prefabricated crack and propagates along the vertical interface. The other starts at the upper tip of the prefabricated damage and propagates along the interface direction. It can be seen that the lower tip of the prefabricated crack enters into the crack fracture process zone earlier than the upper tip. The strain localization band narrows gradually with the load increase, and then macro cracks appear. The initiation of two tips is suitable for different fracture criteria. The lower tip is dominated by the maximum circumferential tensile stress, and the upper tip is dominated by shear stress. The specimens eventually fracture along the interface. The evolution of the strain field during the failure process of rock and coal-like material can reflect the generation and propagation of the crack.
