AI Technical Summary
Without supporting monitoring devices for monitoring local strain fields in rocks, it is difficult to effectively capture and warn of precursory information about rock failure.
A four-node strain rosette assembly is designed, comprising four triaxial 45° strain rosettes. The installation position is determined by positioning crosshairs and positioning horizontal lines. A self-adhesive membrane design is adopted, and a static strain acquisition instrument is connected to monitor the strain field.
It enables real-time monitoring of the strain field on the surface of rock specimens, is applicable to specimens of various materials, is easy to install and has low cost, and is suitable for early warning of disasters such as earthquakes and landslides.
