Visual and Acoustic Emission Observations of Fracture in Barre GraniteBing Q. LiPhD Candidate,Department of Civil and Environmental EngineeringIn collaboration with Prof. Herbert H. Einstein
MIT Earth Resources Laboratory2017 Annual Founding Members Meeting01 June, 2017
IntroductionMain research goal: Relate visual observations to acoustic emissions (laboratory analogue to microseismicity), given that fractures are not directly accessible in the field.

Slide 12
• At a specimen scale, changes detected by visual techniques match well to AE and load-‐displacement data
• On a microstructural scale, most of the damage occurs prior to the initiation of fracture considered at a specimen scale• For a tensile stress field, microstructural damage appears to be mostly shear
• For the beam bending stress condition, it appears that non double couple hypocenters are more closely related in space to the fracture than double couple events
• The process zone detected by the visual techniques corresponds well to the majority of AE hypocenter locations
• Ongoing work on experiments with hydraulic fracture boundary conditions indicate that the above observations also apply
