Patterns of Influence of Parallel Rock Fractures on the Mechanical Properties of the Rock–Coal Combined Body
Hydraulic fracturing of a roof can attenuate the strong mineral pressure and stress transfer by creating a series of parallel artificial fractures in it, and different forms of hydraulic parallel fractures have different effects on the attenuation effect of the coal rock system. In this regard, this study investigated the influence law of different forms of parallel pre-cracks on the mechanical properties of a rock–coal combined body through PFC2D numerical simulation, and the following conclusions were obtained. Parallel pre-cracks significantly affected the mechanical properties of the rock–coal combined body. The stress–strain curve of the coal–rock assemblage containing Parallel pre-cracks changes significantly following reductions in peak strength, peak strain, elastic modulus, and crack initiation stress. The closer the angle θ between the single set of parallel pre-cracks and the horizontal is to 30°, the longer the length, L, and the lower the peak strength of the specimen, the peak strain, the modulus of elasticity, and the crack initiation stress. Macroscopic damage patterns are given for a rock–coal combined body containing single sets of parallel pre-cracks of different parameters, with coal sample damage, coal–rock sample damage and rock sample damage; a rock–coal combined body containing parallel pre-cracks is divided into three modes of fracture initiation when pressurized. These are the cracking of the coal sample, the simultaneous cracking of the parallel pre-crack tips in coal and rock samples, and the cracking of the parallel pre-crack tips in rock samples.
