Waveform detection of elastic wave velocity changes in rock under small stress perturbations

Elastic wave velocity changes can reflect changes of the rock internal structure and stress,and it becomes an important basis for monitoring engineering structures.Its key is to achieve high precision detection under the small stress perturbations.An integrated observing system was established,and six samples were measured in uniaxial compression experiment.At the same time,observational data for each system was recorded under the small stress perturbations.These data include the strain,acoustic emission and ultrasonic waveforms of the rocks.The characteristics of multiple scattering waves(coda) caused by rock heterogeneity were analyzed.Using the coda wave interferometry(CWI),high accuracy waveform detection of the velocity variation was achieved.The detection method of rock elastic wave velocity changes under small stress perturbations was developed.The regularity of wave velocity variation with stress was analyzed.The following are the conclusions: Coda wave interferometry can achieve high-precision dynamic monitoring under the small stress perturbations.Its advantages include rock disturbance,high sensitivity,good stability and simple operation.The applicating conditions of the method include medium high scattering intensity,more developmental coda,and good repeatability of the observing system.The relative change of coda wave velocity is a kind of characterization showing the rock damage state.Coda wave velocity changes have the memory effect.Compared with the traditional acoustic emission method,the method is stable and easily identifiable.It can be used for in-situ stress test of rock.
