Abstract
Rock fracturing is often accompanied by electromagnetic phenomenon. As a vector field, in addition to the intensity that is widely concerned, the generated electromagnetic field also has obvious directionality. To this end, a set of electromagnetic antennas capable of simultaneous three-axis measurement is used to monitor the electromagnetic vector field generated from rock fracturing based on Brazilian tests. The signal amplitude on each axis can represent the magnitude of actual magnetic flux density component on the three axes. The intensity and directional characteristics of electromagnetic signals received at different positions are studied using vector synthesis. The directionality of electromagnetic radiation measured using a three-axis electromagnetic antenna shows that the direction of the magnetic flux intensity generated by rock fracturing tends to be parallel to the crack surface, and the measured signal intensity is greater in a direction closer to the crack surface.
