During the single particle crush test, the test particles were placed in dry condition at all times.

In one embodiment, the process of crushing the particulate granules includes five stages; the five phases include:
at the initial stage of loading, the axial load of the granular particles grows in a concave shape, the axial load of partial granules grows in a concave shape in an oscillation mode, at the moment, the acoustic emission event rate is in a bead shape and is accompanied by a low-frequency signal of about 50kHz, and the granules under pressure are judged to be in the stage (I): adjusting the position of the particles and compacting the pores/fractures;
when the axial load is linearly and elastically increased, the acoustic emission event rate is in a dispersion state and is accompanied by a frequency signal of 100-200kHz, and the pressed particles are judged to be in the stage (II): an elastic deformation stage;
when the axial load continues to increase linearly and elastically, the acoustic emission event rate begins to increase rapidly again, and the compressed particles are judged to be in the stage (III) along with sporadic high-frequency signals higher than 200 kHz: a microcrack stable growth phase;
when the axial load is increased in an oscillating manner, the acoustic emission event rate is increased in an accelerating manner, and a large number of high-frequency signals with the frequency of 200-700kHz accompany the acoustic emission event rate, and the pressed particles are judged to be in the stage (IV): a microcrack unstable growth phase;
when the axial load is reduced in a cliff-breaking mode, the acoustic emission event rate is still continuously and rapidly increased in a low-stress state, and the pressed particles are judged to be in a stage (V) along with a large number of high-frequency signals with the frequency of 200-700 kHz: and (4) a destruction stage.
In one example, the five stages may not occur sequentially in order, and the particles do not have to go through the complete five fracturing stages; some stages may overlap partially or completely, while individual or certain stages may be present for a short time or even disappear during the fracturing of the particles.
Further, after the target particles (particulate particles) are crushed, the method further includes:

Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a method for identifying the micromechanical behavior among particles of the particulate material based on acoustic emission characteristics according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, the method for identifying the micromechanical behavior among particles of the particulate/granular material based on the acoustic emission characteristics may include the following steps:
step 1: placing single-particle sand on a single-particle loading test device, as shown in figure 2;
in this example, five kinds of single-particle siliceous sandy soils with different sizes were selected, and the test particle sizes were: 6.79mm × 5.36mm × 4.53mm, 4.61mm × 4.26mm × 3.62mm, 3.57mm × 3.26mm × 2.50mm, 2.95mm × 2.46mm × 2.06mm, 2.18mm × 1.85mm × 1.53 mm;
in this embodiment, the optical image of the different sized single particle sand grains shows: the roundness of larger particles is higher, the surface is smoother, and the surface has primary micro defects; smaller particles have more edges and corners and rougher surfaces;
in this example, the target particles 15 were placed in dry condition before and during the test, and 10 tests were performed for each size of particles, for a total of 50 tests for all particles;
step 2: installing a high-performance acoustic emission measurement system on the testing device, as shown in FIG. 2;
in the embodiment, in order to reduce the energy attenuation of the acoustic emission signal in the granular material, the acoustic emission measurement system comprises a high-performance acoustic emission sensor 11, a signal amplifier 12, a high-performance data collector 13 and a data memory 14. The acoustic emission sensor 11 is a piezoelectric ceramic sensor manufactured by fuji ceramics: M304A, a preamplifier with gain of 20 +/-2 dB is arranged in the sensor probe, the working frequency of the sensor is 10kHz-5MHz (the resonant frequency is 300kHz), and the sensitivity is 115 +/-3 dB (the reference: 0dB is 1V/M/s); the acoustic emission signal amplifier 12 is a signal amplifier manufactured by fuji ceramics: a1201, the gain of which is 53 +/-3 dB; the data acquisition instrument 13 is PXIe-6366 manufactured by NI corporation in America, and the sampling rate is set to be 2 MS/s;
and step 3: controlling a loading test device to crush the target particles according to a preset loading speed;
in this embodiment, the predetermined loading rate is constant at 0.2mm/min to propel the loading rod 7 downward, simulating a target particle crushing process. Specifically, with the advance of the loading rod 7, the target particle firstly undergoes particle position adjustment and primary pore/fracture closure, linear elastic compression, stable growth of microcracks, unstable growth of microcracks, and finally fracturing of particles caused by fusion and penetration of microcracks.
And 4, step 4: acquiring an axial load applied to target particles by a single particle loading device through a pressure sensor, acquiring axial displacement generated when the target particles are compressed during loading through a displacement sensor, and acquiring an original acoustic emission time domain signal generated in the crushing process of the target particles through a high-performance acoustic emission measuring system;
in the embodiment, the sampling frequency of the pressure sensor is set to be 1S/S, the sampling frequency of the displacement sensor is set to be 1S/S, and the sampling frequency of the acoustic emission measurement system is set to be 2 MS/S;
in this embodiment, the original acoustic emission time domain signal is as shown in fig. 4;
in this embodiment, the acoustic emission signals mainly originate from the initiation and development of cracks inside the particles, the breakage of edges and corners of the particles, the dislocation friction of the broken parts of the particles, the friction and abrasion between the surfaces of the particles and the upper and lower load plates, and the like;
and 5: in order to effectively distinguish the acoustic emission signals from the environmental electrical noise, a voltage threshold is preset according to the voltage level caused by the electrical and environmental noise to filter the acoustic emission signal noise, once the signal exceeds the threshold, the acoustic emission signals are identified and defined as a primary acoustic emission event, the acoustic emission event quantity accumulated at fixed time intervals is defined as an acoustic emission event rate, the acoustic emission event rate in the loading process is counted, and the acoustic emission parameters are defined as shown in the attached figure 5;
in the embodiment, the noise of the acoustic emission signal is about 20dB (reference: 0dB ═ 1mV/m/s), and the preset voltage threshold is 29.54dB (reference: 0dB ═ 1 mV/m/s); the acoustic emission event rate is defined as the cumulative number of acoustic emission events in 1 second;
further, a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method is adopted to convert the recorded original acoustic emission time domain electrical signal from a time domain to a frequency domain, and a frequency component with a peak amplitude in a spectrum is taken as a peak frequency to acquire a frequency characteristic of the detected acoustic emission signal.
Step 6: by establishing a relation curve among characteristics of axial load, axial displacement, acoustic emission event rate and acoustic emission frequency, the indoor test method for identifying the micro-mechanical behavior among particles of the granular material based on the acoustic emission characteristic information is provided.
Further, the specific relationship curve established in step 6 includes:
the curve of the axial load-axial displacement variation during the particle crushing process is shown in fig. 6;
the relationship curve of axial load-axial displacement-acoustic emission event rate in the particle crushing process is shown in FIG. 7;
the characteristic relation curve of axial load-axial displacement-acoustic emission frequency in the particle crushing process is shown in figure 8.
As can be seen from fig. 6 to 8, the single particle crushing process is divided into five stages;
the five stages are respectively: the method comprises the following steps of (I) adjusting the position of particles and compacting primary micropores/fractures, (II) performing linear elastic deformation, (III) performing stable microcrack growth, (IV) performing unstable microcrack growth, and (V) performing destruction.
Specifically, in the stage (I), the position of the particles between the particles and the upper and lower load plates is adjusted in a rotating and sliding mode, and the primary cracks/pores are closed, so that the rigidity of the particles is gradually increased, and an axial load-axial displacement curve is concave; on the other hand, the acoustic emission event rate appears as a bead and is accompanied by a low frequency signal of around 50 kHz. Along with the loading, the particles enter a linear elasticity stage, and the axial load is linearly and elastically increased; on the other hand, the acoustic emission event rate is in a dispersion state and is accompanied by a higher frequency signal with the frequency of 100-200kHz, and at the moment, the particles are in a stage (II): and (5) an elastic deformation stage. Subsequently, the axial load continues to increase linearly elastically, but the acoustic emission event rate begins to increase rapidly and with sporadic high frequency signals above 200kHz, when the compressed particles are in phase (III): microcracking and a plateau growth phase. With the advancing of the loading rod, particle microcracks continuously develop and rapidly fuse, weak corners can also break, so that the load tends to increase in an undulating manner, on the other hand, the acoustic emission event rate increases in an accelerated manner, and is accompanied by more high-frequency signals with the frequency of 200-700kHz, and the pressed particles are in a stage (IV): unstable micro-crack growth phase. Finally, with the complete coalescence of the microcracks, the axial load is reduced in a cliff-broken manner, on the other hand, the acoustic emission event rate still continuously and rapidly increases in a low-stress state, and the pressed particles can be judged to be in the stage (V) along with a large number of high-frequency signals with the frequency of 200-700 kHz: and (4) a destruction stage. It should be noted that: the five stages do not necessarily occur sequentially throughout the particle crushing process, and the particles do not have to undergo the entire five fracturing stages, some stages may overlap partially or completely, and individual or some stages may be present for a short time or even disappear during the particle fracturing process.
In particular, before the final failure (i.e.: phase IV), a rapid increase in the acoustic emission event rate is observed with a large number of high frequency signals (>200kHz), which is closely related to the initiation and evolution of microcracks. On one hand, the phenomenon of sound emission is expected to be regarded as precursor information of material damage, and advanced early warning is realized; on the other hand, when the internal micro mechanism of the bulk and granular material aggregate is researched in various loading processes, the real-time continuous evaluation of the strength and the mode of the interaction among the particles in the particle aggregate can be realized by carrying out classification statistics (such as separation of high-frequency and low-frequency signals) on the acoustic emission characteristic information.
In particular, after the particles are fragmented or disintegrated, the broken "new particles" will become more emissive, even at very low loading levels, and exhibit a large high frequency signal (>200kHz), as shown in fig. 6-8, indicating that: compared with mechanical parameters and displacement parameters, the acoustic emission parameters can better reflect the historical damage degree of the particles;
by combining the 50 single-particle crushing tests in this example, the axial load-axial displacement relationship curve, the axial load-axial displacement-acoustic emission event rate relationship curve, and the axial load-axial displacement-acoustic emission frequency characteristic relationship curve are analyzed, and it can be seen that the low-frequency acoustic emission component (below 100kHz), the medium-high frequency acoustic emission component (100 + 200kHz), and the high-frequency component (200 + 700kHz) are closely related to the micro-mechanical behavior modes such as particle adjustment, particle surface grinding, and micro-cracks, respectively, and the internal micro-mechanical characteristics of the loaded single-particle sandy soil can be further judged through the acoustic emission frequency characteristics.
According to the method for identifying the micro-mechanical behavior among the particles of the bulk and granular material based on the acoustic emission characteristics, the bulk and granular particles are placed on a single particle loading device; installing a high-performance acoustic emission measurement system on the single particle loading device; controlling a single particle loading device to crush the target particles according to a preset loading speed; acquiring an axial load applied to the target particles by a loading test device through a pressure sensor, acquiring axial displacement generated when the target particles are compressed during loading through a displacement sensor, and acquiring an original acoustic emission time domain signal generated in the crushing process of the target particles through a high-performance acoustic emission measurement system; filtering the noise of the acoustic emission electrical signal through a preset voltage threshold, extracting and counting the acoustic emission event rate in the loading process, converting an original acoustic emission time domain signal into a frequency domain signal through Fourier transform, and acquiring the frequency domain characteristic of the acoustic emission signal generated in the crushing process; the relationship among the characteristics of axial load, axial displacement, acoustic emission event rate and acoustic emission frequency is established. By providing the indoor test method for identifying the micro-mechanical behavior among the particles of the granular material based on the acoustic emission characteristic information, the identification and research of the internal micro-mechanism of the granular material in various loading processes can be carried out, and the damage stage and the damage degree of the granular material in the particle fracturing process can be continuously judged in real time; the problem of high attenuation of acoustic signal propagation in the granular material is effectively solved by adopting a high-precision acoustic emission measurement system; the sound insulation barrier is adopted, so that the problems of environment and electric noise of a loading system are effectively reduced; the method can synchronously measure mechanical parameters, displacement parameters and acoustic parameters (including acoustic emission event rate and acoustic emission frequency characteristics) in the particle fracturing process, integrates acoustics-mechanics-statistics, and can realize real-time and continuous internal microscopic monitoring of the whole material fracturing process. A large number of test results prove that: the acoustic emission event rate and the acoustic emission frequency characteristic have strong correlation with axial load, axial displacement, material destruction stage and material internal micromechanics behavior. At the initial stage of loading, the axial load of the particles is increased in an upper concave shape, the axial load of part of the particles is increased in an oscillating upper concave shape, the acoustic emission event rate is in a bead shape and is accompanied by a low-frequency signal about 50kHz, and at the moment, the pressed particles can be judged to be in the particle position adjustment and pore/fracture compaction stages; when the axial load is linearly and elastically increased, the acoustic emission event rate is in a dispersion state and is accompanied by a higher-frequency signal with the frequency of 100-200kHz, and the pressed particles can be judged to be in an elastic deformation stage; when the axial load continues to increase linearly and elastically, the acoustic emission event rate starts to increase rapidly, and the pressurized particles can be judged to be in a stable microcrack increasing stage along with a high-frequency signal with the sporadic frequency of 200-700 kHz; when the axial load is increased in a vibration mode, the acoustic emission event rate is increased in an accelerated mode, and the pressure particles can be judged to be in the stage of unstable microcrack growth along with more high-frequency signals of 200-700 kHz; when the axial load is reduced in a cliff-breaking manner, the acoustic emission event rate is still continuously and rapidly increased in a low-stress state, and the compressed particles can be judged to be in a damage stage along with a large number of high-frequency signals with the frequency of 200-700 kHz. It should be noted that: throughout the particle crushing process, the five stages do not necessarily occur sequentially in order, and the particles do not have to undergo the complete five fracturing stages; some stages may overlap partially or completely, while individual or certain stages may be present for a short time or even disappear during the fracturing of the particles. Particularly, in the early stage of material damage, the acoustic emission event rate is increased rapidly and is accompanied by the generation of more high-frequency signals (>200kHz), the unstable development of the internal cracks of the material is better reflected, and the characteristic information is expected to be used as precursor information of the material damage on one hand, so that the advance early warning is realized; on the other hand, when the internal micro mechanism of the bulk and granular aggregates in various loading processes is researched, the strength and the mode of the interaction among the particles in the bulk and granular aggregates can be continuously evaluated in real time by counting different acoustic emission parameters carrying different frequency components, so that the detection process is simpler and more convenient.
