Tests included three stress gradient coefficients and four structural surface angles. Macroscopic failure observations and infrared thermal imaging of the unloading surfaces were analyzed to understand the characteristics of structure rockburst and the influence of structural surfaces. Two infrared thermal imaging evolution parameters, the relative temperature mean (<em>HRT</em>) and the coefficient of variation (<em>COV</em>), were introduced to explore precursor indicators of structure rockburst. The results indicated that: (1) The dip angle of the structural surface (<em>θ</em>) and the stress gradient coefficient (<em>k</em>) both affect the peak stress during rockburst. (2) The structural surface angle significantly influences rockburst characteristics: <em>θ</em> = 30° or 60° results in shear slip-type rockbursts along or exposed on the structural surface, while <em>θ</em> = 0° or 90° manifests as buckling and tensile cracking-type rockbursts. (3) Infrared thermal imaging reveals that from initial loading to rockburst, temperature distribution transitions from uniform to normal, and then to non-normal. Accumulation of high-temperature points near rockburst indicates failure locations, with increased <em>k</em> intensifying non-normal distribution. (4) Peak values of <em>HRT</em> and <em>COV</em> positively correlate with <em>k</em>. (5) Fluctuations or sharp increases in <em>HRT</em> and <em>COV</em> values serve as precursors for predicting debris spalling and rockburst events.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13549,"journal":{"name":"Infrared Physics & Technology","volume":"142 ","pages":"Article 105565"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142358914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The focal depth is small, and there are problems such as divergence angle and aberration, which results in the difficult coupling adjustment because the adjustment range of laser coupling to water-jet fiber is limited to the Rayleigh range. In this study, non-diffraction laser (NDL) is generated by an axicon, which has the characteristics of small central spot and large non-diffraction range (NDR). The axial random coupling is realized in the NDR, and the problem of axial coupling between the focused laser and the water-jet generated by nozzle micro-hole is solved. Besides, this paper presents a novel technique to generate NDL by the combination of concave axicon (CCA) and convex axicon (CVA), which solves the small cone angle of the single CVA and the non-modulation defect of the corresponding optical and mechanical structure, and extends the starting point of the NDR to improve the coupling utilization rate of the NDR and the flexibility of the system. The focusing and coupling transmission characteristics of convex lens and axicons mode in WJGL are compared and analyzed. The generated NDL in the NDR at the axial reference coordinate point position of 50 mm and 70 mm is successfully coupled into the water-jet fiber. After the coupling transmission of 20 mm, the coupling efficiency, the morphology of the transmitted spot and the peak power density were basically the same, and the coupling efficiency of the central spot was about 81 %. However, the output spot peak power density and coupling efficiency decrease sharply when the axial coupling deviation exceeds 5 mm adopting convex lens. In contrast, the NDL can achieve a random coupling with high axial coupling tolerance in NDR. The research provides a solution for efficient adjustment and transmission of laser coupling into water-jet in highly stable WJGL.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13549,"journal":{"name":"Infrared Physics & Technology","volume":"142 ","pages":"Article 105562"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142310575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
