Abstract:

Research on the damage and seepage characteristics of unloading rock with high water pressure can help to further understand the mechanism of water inrush in deep mine floor and prevent water inrush. This paper used the RFPA2D-flow finite element software to study the failure and seepage characteristics of unloading rock with high water pressure and high stress and comparatively analyzed the failure modes and seepage characteristics of unloading rock with and without water pressure. The effects of different water pressure differences on the failure of unloading rock and the law of seepage were investigated by analyzing the change of acoustic emission and permeability coefficient with stress. The results showed that the unloading rock without water pressure was brittle failure, and the initial damage of the unloading model with water pressure was earlier than that of the model without water pressure and showed greater brittleness, and its cracks first break through at the bottom of the sample with higher osmotic pressure. With the increase in unloading, the permeability of rock increased gradually until it appeared an abrupt change. The failure mode and permeability law of the rock with different water pressure differences were basically the same, but the greater the pressure difference, the smaller the effective unloading capacity when the permeability coefficient changes suddenly, and the greater the possibility of water inrush in the rock.
