Abstract
The deformation and failure process of four classes of double-layer rock plates were researched experimentally with the new loading device under concentrated load based on MTS-AE system. The force-displacement curves and the force-time-acoustic emission event rate curves were obtained through the experiments. The results showed that there were three failure modes of beam fracture, arch destruction and plate fracture damage in the upper plate of the double-layer rock plates; all the lower plates of the four classes of rock plates produced the beam fracture damage. There were four distinct mechanical response stages in the force-displacement curves; three types of mechanical behavior of the double-layer rock plates arose after the second load peak, which were post-peak yielding, post-peak hardening and post-peak softening; the bearing capacity of the double-layer rock plates is usually greater than that of the single-layer rock plate. It showed that the acoustic emission events were not only in the phase before the peak value, but also in the post-peak phase.
