Popis: It has a significant and practical meaning for warning precisely gas outburst to reveal microseismic (MS) and acoustic emission (AE) effect of gas outburst precursor. It was thoroughly investigated and discussed on MS and AE effect on an abnormal gas outburst triggered by a strong rockburst using MS- and AE-monitoring systems through spectral analysis technique. We obtained main conclusions are as: (1) MS amplitude prominently decreased prior to outburst, the spectrum significantly moved from extremely low-frequency to high-frequency band, and evolved from “single-peak type” (the center frequency was about 1.5–3.5 Hz) to “multi-peak type” (the peak frequencies were about 25, 50, 75 and 125 Hz, respectively). (2) During the initiative stage of outburst, MS spectrum manifested the broadband distribution, and the predominant frequency was about 20–35 Hz. The high-frequency portion was generated by micro-cracks, and the low-frequency part attributed to macro-fracture for gas outburst channel. (3) The rockburst stimulated micro-fissures formation for gas emission channels, and maintained the event count of MS and AE signals in a relatively higher level, which is a major discrepancy to the common belief that both the total energy and event count should simultaneously and suddenly reduce to the lowest value in a non-outburst coal seam.
