Abstract:
:Assisted ultrasonic vibration technology has received great interest in the past few years for petroleum and mining engineering related to hard rock breaking. Understanding the fatigue behaviour and damage characteristics of rock subject to ultra-high-frequency loading is vital for its application. In this research, we conducted ultrasonic vibration breaking rock experiments combined with an ultra-dynamic data receiver and strain gauges to monitor the development of strain in real time. The experimental results show that the strain curve is U-shaped, and it can be divided into three stages: the strain first decreases, then remains steady (with light fluctuations) and finally increases. The sample first underwent compressive deformation, and no rupture occurred. As the vibration continued, the compressive deformation decreased with the initiation and propagation of cracks, and fragmentation occurred. To elucidate the crack evolution mechanism of the granite specimens, numerical simulations were performed using particle flow code in two dimensions (PFC2D), and an improved fatigue damage model based on the flat-joint contact model was proposed. The numerical results indicate that this model can effectively reproduce the fatigue characteristics of hard brittle rocks under ultrasonic vibration. By analysing the stress and strain fields and cracking process, the crack evolution mechanism in the brittle hard rock under ultra-high-frequency loading is revealed. These experimental and numerical results are expected to improve the understanding of the fragmentation mechanism of rock under assisted ultrasonic vibration.
