Energy Evolution Law of Ore-Bearing Rock during Unloading under High Static Stress and Frequent Disturbance by Chun Wang, Mei-zhi Xie, Zu-qiang Xiong, Cheng Wang, Lu-ping Cheng

“…The higher the preloaded axial pressure is, the greater the ratio of reflected energy to incident energy is, the smaller the ratio of transmitted energy to incident energy and the average energy dissipation per unit volume of rock are. When the unloading rate increased, the elastic energy generated by impact gradually increased, the plasticity gradually weakened, the ratio of transmitted energy to incident energy increased, and the ratio of reflection energy to incident energy decreased.…”
