Characterization of Acoustic Emission Parameters during Fracture Process of Siltstone with Prefabricated Void by Xiaorong Liu, Lulin Zheng, Hengyi He, Qing Qiu, Ziqi Liu, Xuefeng Li, Lin Yan, Gang Huang

“…In order to explore the damage effect of borehole pressure relief technology on rock, uniaxial compression and acoustic emission tests were carried out on siltstone specimens with borehole diameters of 8 mm, 12 mm, and 16 mm, respectively, and the acoustic emission signals of the whole process were collected simultaneously to explore the uniaxial compression of siltstone specimens with prefabricated holes in this paper. According to the statistical characteristics of acoustic emission, the damage law of siltstone specimens with prefabricated holes was explored from the microscopic point of view and the damage effect of drilling on siltstone specimens reflected by the acoustic emission phenomenon was revealed. …”
