Study on Mechanical Failure and PermeabilityCharacteristicsof Porous Gas-Bearing Coal under Triaxial Stress by Xue-bo Zhang, Wen-yuan Wang, Ming Yang, Hang-hang Cai, Jia-jia Liu, Shuai-shuai Shen

“…However, the change rules of permeability characteristics of the two were basically the same, except that there was a large difference in permeability value that the porous gas-bearing coal sample increases nearly twice as much as that of the conventional gas-bearing coal sample. (3) In the whole stress-strain process, the acoustic emission characteristics of the porous gas-bearing coal sample differed significantly from those of the conventional gas-bearing coal sample. The maximum ringdown count of the porous gas-bearing coal sample can be reduced by one-third at most, the maximum energy can be reduced by nearly half at most, and the maximum amplitude changes little with only 1–3 dB reduction. …”
