In this study, the modified semi-circular bending test was used to investigate the fracture toughness of coal samples with different sizes and bedding angles. The results showed that the fracture toughness of coal exhibits size effect and anisotropy. The crack initiation and propagation in hydraulic fracturing of coal seam can be influenced by bedding angles.
Obtaining the accurate fracture toughness of coal considering bedding angle and independent of size is of great significance to the evaluation of the initiation pressure in the hydraulic fracturing of coal seam. In this study, the newly proposed modified semi-circular bending test was used to conduct mode I fracture testing of coal samples with different sizes and bedding angles. A four-dimensional lattice spring model (4D-LSM) was established based on the cohesive zone model considering bedding planes to study the effects of specimen size and bedding angle the fracture toughness and fracture pattern of coal. The size effect and anisotropy characteristics of fracture toughness of coal were analyzed by using linear elastic fracture mechanics and Bazant size effect law (SEL) theory. The results show that the fracture toughness of coal has obvious size effect and anisotropy. In quasi-brittle materials, the fracture toughness increases with the increase of specimen size due to the fracture process zone (FPZ). However, the fracture toughness of coal affected by microcracks generally decreases with the increase of specimen size. The size effect of fracture toughness of coal is jointly determined by the FPZ with increasing effect and the microcrack with reducing effect. The fracture toughness of coal increases with the increase of bedding angle. The bedding angle has no influence on the fracture toughness size effect of coal, but the microcracks associated with the bedding plane have a greater influence on the fracture toughness size effect. The specimen size only affects the fracture toughness value, but has no obvious effect on the fracture toughness anisotropy. Based on Bazant SEL theory, a fracture toughness size effect model considering microcracks and bedding angles was established. The research results have reference significance for crack initiation and propagation in hydraulic fracturing of coal seam.
