The invention belongs to the technical field of
rock mechanics, and particularly discloses a rock
brittleness quantitative evaluation method based on a Brazilian splitting test. The evaluation method comprises the following steps:
processing a target rock into a standard disc sample, putting the standard disc sample into a Brazilian splitting test clamp, and loading according to requirements by adopting a pressure testing
machine; after loading, enabling the lens of the high-definition camera to face the center of the standard disc sample in the forward direction, and shooting the crack of the loaded sample; performing illumination normalization
processing on the shot image and suppressing
noise to enhance texture information; identifying cracks in the image by adopting an
edge detection algorithm, performing skeleton extraction, and calculating the
actual length of the cracks in combination with an
image scale or a disc sample size; and taking the ratio of the actual crack length to the
disc diameter as an index for evaluating the
brittleness of different rocks. According to the method, the standardized Brazilian splitting experiment is combined with quantitative evaluation, the fracture characteristic and the energy conversion rule of the rock in the tensile stress state are fully reflected, and the method has the characteristics of being simple and convenient to operate, reasonable and reliable in result and high in adaptability.
