In this study, a novel 3D simulation method is proposed for broken rock and coal granule compaction and breakage. This method can simulate the re-breakage characteristics of broken rock and coal granules during laterally confined compression (LCS). On this basis, numerical simulations combined with laboratory tests are conducted to quantitatively analyse the stress, porosity, and breakage rate evolution characteristics of broken rock granules during LCS. The entire loading process of broken rock granules is divided into three stages: self-adjustment, broken, and elastic. The stress evolution and breakage evolution characteristics of the broken rock granules during each loading stage are delineated. The breakage characteristics of broken rock granules are the main reasons for the evolution of stress, porosity, and breaking rate. In the elastic stage, only uniform compressive stress acts on the broken rock granule, inhibiting further breakage of the sample. When the loading stress reaches the tensile strength of the broken rock granules, the breakage rate of the models increases the fastest. The effects of the broken sample strength and sample size on the breakage characteristics and stress evolution law of the broken models during loading are further discussed. The secant modulus of the broken models in the elastic stages is approximately equal to the elastic modulus of the coal and rock samples. The coordination number evolution law of the broken granules during loading is the main factor affecting its breakage. 收起
