Abstract
This study suggests the use of a seismic source of a rock drill as a new excitation method for real-time monitoring of the vibration frequency of rock masses in tunnel engineering. In this study, a laboratory rock drill seismic source test system was developed. The rock mass excitation and vibration response under real in situ stress were simulated, and a natural frequency test of different lithologic materials under various in situ stresses was carried out based on the developed system. Empirical equations for estimating natural frequency were established using regression analysis. The test results show that (1) the laboratory rock drill seismic source test system exhibits good performance and can simulate the horizontal excitation process of the tunnel rock drill. Rock drill excitation may be used as the seismic source to continuously measure the in-situ vibration information of the rock mass. (2) The natural frequency of rock is positively correlated with rock elastic modulus and geostress and negatively correlated with rock density. This is not directly related to the seismic source.
