The deformation and failure of coal and rock materials is the primary cause of many engineering disasters. How to accurately and effectively monitor and forecast the damage evolution process of coal and rock mass, and form a set of prediction methods and prediction indicators is an urgent engineering problems to be solved in the field of rock mechanics and engineering. As a form of energy dissipation in the deformation process of coal and rock, microseismic (MS) can indirectly reflect the damage of coal and rock. In order to analyze the relationship between the damage degree of coal and rock and time-frequency characteristics of MS, the deformation and fracture process of coal and rock materials under different loading modes was tested. The time-frequency characteristics and generation mechanism of MS were analyzed under different loading stages. Meanwhile, the influences of properties of coal and rock materials on MS signals were studied. Results show that there is an evident mode cutoff point between high-frequency and low-frequency MS signals. The properties of coal and rock, such as the development degree of the original fracture, particle size and dense degree have a decisive influence on the amplitude, frequency, energy and other characteristic parameters of MS signals. The change of MS parameters is closely related to material damage, but has no strong relation with the loading rate. The richness of MS signals before the main fracture depends on the homogeneity of materials. With the increase of damage, the energy release rate increases, which can lead to the widening of MS signals spectrum. The stiffness and natural frequency of specimens decreases correspondingly. Meanwhile, the main reason that the dominant frequency of MS detected by sensors installed on the surface of coal and rock materials is mainly low-frequency is friction loss and the resonance effect. In addition, the spectrum and energy evolution of MS can be used as a characterization method of the damage degree of coal and rock materials. Furthermore, the results can provide important reference for prediction and early warning of some rock engineering disasters.

Abstract. Monitoring of debris flows using ground vibration sensors has increased in the last two decades. However, the correct interpretation of the signals still presents ambiguity. In the Rebaixader monitoring site (Central Pyrenees, Spain) two different ground vibration stations are installed. At the first station the ground velocity signal is transformed into an impulses-per-second signal (low frequency, 1 Hz). The analysis of the data recorded at this station show that the shape of the impulses signal is one of the key parameters to describe the evolution of the event. At the second station the ground velocity signal is directly recorded at high frequency (250 Hz). The results achieved at this station show that the differences in time series and spectral analysis are helpful to describe the temporal evolution of the events. In addition, some general outcomes were obtained: the attenuation of the signal with the distance has been identified as linear to exponential; and the assembly of the geophones to the terrain has an important effect on the amplification of the signal. All these results highlight that the definition of ground vibration thresholds for debris-flow detection or warning purposes is a difficult task; and that influence of site-specific conditions is notable.

The transfer of learning between normal and monocularly-transformed small-disparity, random-dot stereostimuli has been examined under extended viewing conditions. When the disparity value was constant, transfer of learning between normal and monocularly-transformed stereostimuli was disrupted by both low-frequency and high-frequency transformations. These results suggest that stereolearning is restricted to disparity units that are selective to the same spatial-frequency characteristics.

According to the practical situation, the 3-D finite element model of Sandaowan underground powerhouse caverns on Taolai River is set up for analyzing the behaviors under earthquake action. Based on static stress field of the surrounding rock mass, and with the selection of appropriate seismic waves for dynamic time-history analysis method, the dynamic responses of underground powerhouse caverns are analyzed. It is shown that the time-history waveform of dynamic displacement of given points has a very similar variation regularity with that of acceleration, and the wave phases of both are almost synchronous. The dynamic displacements and principal stresses of the given points on rock walls are with the vibration of low-frequency characteristics, the acceleration response is with the vibration of high-frequency characteristics.
