Study on the energy evolution mechanism of coal and rock with impact tendency under different strain rates

Abstract

To explore the strain rate effect of deformation and failure of impact prone coal rock, uniaxial compression tests and triaxial compression tests with different strain rates were carried out. The mechanical properties and impact tendency of impact-prone coal rock were studied, and the energy evolution law and pre-peak energy self-promotion-inhibition mechanism of impact-prone coal rock were obtained. The results show that with the increase of strain rate, the peak strength of coal rock under uniaxial compression decreases gradually, and the peak strength of coal rock under triaxial compression increases first and then decreases, and the impact tendency of coal rock increases first and then decreases. The energy evolution of coal rock under uniaxial compression is mainly divided into four stages: initial energy damage, energy hardening, energy softening and failure. With the increase of strain rate, the total energy and elasticity at the peak point of coal rock under uniaxial compression decrease gradually, and the total energy, elastic energy and dissipation energy at the peak point under triaxial compression increase first and then decrease. The elastic energy promotion coefficient of impact-prone coal rock is much larger than the inhibition coefficient, and the increase of strain rate will promote the generation of elastic energy inside coal rock. The research results can provide reference for the prevention and early warning of dynamic disasters of coal and rock mass with impact tendency.
