Abstract

Rocks may undergo changes in internal structural integrity due to the coupling of cyclic loading and acidbase corrosion (CL-AC), which can subsequently alter their mechanical properties. Based on uniaxial compression tests with acoustic emission, the coupling of CL-AC on the mechanical behavior of sandstone and the evolution of acoustic emission characteristics were investigated. The results indicated that as the coupling of CL-AC increased, the uniaxial compressive strength of sandstone decreased significantly. The cumulative acoustic emission count and energy of the pre-treated sandstone showed a decreasing trend. The proportion of low-frequency acoustic emission signals from the sandstone increased, while the proportions of mid and high-frequency signals decreased. That is, the coupling of CL-AC facilitated the formation of larger cracks. As the sandstone approached failure, low-frequency, high-amplitude and mid-frequency, high-amplitude acoustic emission signals disappeared, which may serve as a precursor to sandstone failure. The RA-AF value distribution of the sandstone showed that the pre-treated sandstone primarily exhibited tensile cracks, while the lossless sandstone was dominated by shear cracks. That is, the coupling of CL-AC promoted the propagation of tensile cracks and inhibited the expansion of shear cracks. These findings offered valuable insights into the damage and failure mechanisms of sandstone under the coupling of CL-AC, providing crucial guidance for the prevention of rock dynamic hazards.
