Experimental investigation on rockburst process and characteristics of a circular opening in layered rock under three-dimensional stress conditions

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the influence of the bedding angle on the failure process and characteristics of circular hole sidewalls, and true-triaxial lab tests were conducted on cubic phyllite specimens with different bedding angles.

Evaluation of energy storage and release potentials of highly stressed rock pillar from rockburst control perspectives

TL;DR: In this paper , a method for estimating the desired number of energy-absorbing bolts during rockburst support in engineering practice was proposed. But the method is limited to a single-cyclic loading-unloading uniaxial compression test with different stress levels.

Influence of maximum principal stress direction on the failure process and characteristics of D-shaped tunnels

TL;DR: In this paper , the failure process of D-shaped tunnels under different maximum principal stress directions was investigated, and the failure severities at different stress directions can be ranked from high to low in the following order: 90°>60°>30°>45°>0°.

The 2003 Canadian Geotechnical Colloquium: Mechanistic interpretation and practical application of damage and spalling prediction criteria for deep tunnelling

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used analytical and micromechanical tools to validate a simple empirical predictive model for tunnel spall initiation in hard-rock and granitoid or gneissic ground.

Rockburst mechanisms in tunnels and shafts

TL;DR: In this article, several different mechanisms of rockbursting are distinguished, and a clear distinction is drawn between source and damage mechanisms where appropriate, brief case studies of the different mechanisms are given.

Design of rock support system under rockburst condition

TL;DR: In this paper, an interactive tool for conducting rockburst support design in underground tunnels is introduced to facilitate cost-effective design, and the support selection process in burst-prone ground is iterative, requiring design verification and modification based on field observations.

Failure mechanism and coupled static-dynamic loading theory in deep hard rock mining: A review

TL;DR: In this article, a new theory and testing method for deep underground rock mass under coupled static-dynamic loading are introduced, and the results of true triaxial unloading compression tests on granite and red sandstone indicate that the unloading can induce slabbing when the confining pressure exceeds a certain threshold and the slabbing failure strength is lower than the shear failure strength according to the conventional MohrColumn criterion.
