In order to research the characteristic and mechanism of fracture of rock-like materials,the morphology of rock fracture surface under the breakages of uniaxial compression and triaxial compression was observed and measured by means of a new-type 3D laser scanning system.Based on geographic information system(GIS)technique,the fracture surfaces were 3D visualized and reestablished.According to GIS 3D statistics,the geometrical characteristics of fracture surfaces under different breakage conditions were analyzed,and then based on fractal theory,the change laws of fractal dimension of fracture surfaces were discussed under the conditions of different cell pressures and initial water contents of rock.Furthermore,the relationships between characteristics of fracture surface and mechanical properties of rock were discussed.The results indicate that cell pressure,initial water content,and mechanical parameters of rock are the important factors to influence on the geometrical characteristics of fracture surface.The research provides a new experimental method for quantitative study on the fracture characteristics of various materials under different breakage conditions.
