Study on Fractal Dimension of Acoustic Emission during Cemented Backfill Micro Crack Evolution Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

By virtue of uniaxial cyclic loading and unloading tests on cemented backfill, the studies were carried out, which are mainly on the micro crack evolution characteristics and the AE fractal characteristics in various stage of micro crack evolution. The results show the value of AE energy and fractal dimension are high in the micro holes compaction stage. By contrast, the AE energy and the fractal dimension are at the lowest level in the micro cracks compression phase. In the micro crack stable development stage, the AE events become active, and the fractal dimension keeps a steady growth trend. Finally, with stress further increasing, the AE will take on a quiet period in which the AE energy is high and the AE fractal dimension drops continuously to the lowest value till the stress reaches at peak value of the cemented backfill.
