Acoustic Emission Characteristics of Sericite Schist Coarse Aggregates under Consolidated Undrained Triaxial Tests

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to study the acoustic emission characteristics of coarse aggregates, improved of large-scale triaxial apparatus is used to do the consolidated undrained triaxial tests of sericite schist coarse aggregates, with the acoustic emission signals monitoring. The test results show that a large number of AE signals of sericite schist coarse aggregates are generated in the initial stage. Before the axial strain reach 10%, AE counts are relatively quiet. But after 10%, they become anomalous and emerge obvious leap values. When the confining pressure up to 200kPa, AE signals are mainly generated by sliding friction. With confining pressure increasing, the proporation of rolling friction and particle breakage is more and more obvious.
