Unloading-induced failure of brittle rock and implications for excavation-induced strain burst

Understanding the unloading-induced failure characteristics of brittle rock is essential for predicting excavation-induced strain burst. We conduct both the laboratory experiments and discrete element simulations to investigate the deformation, failure pattern, and strain energy evolution of the Buk...
