Strain Rockbursts Simulated by Low-Strength Brittle Equivalent Materials by Lang Li, Mingyang Wang, Pengxian Fan, Haiming Jiang, Yihao Cheng, Derong Wang

“…The internal stress, strain, and convergences of the openings of the model were instrumented by subtly preembedded sensors and transducers. Test results showed that, with an initial state of high stress from both upper layers’ gravitational effects and in situ stress due to tectonic movements, the excavation brings a dramatic rise in the hoop stress and sharp drop in radial stress, which leads to the splitting failure of rock mass. …”
