The results indicate that the fracture of medium under airshooting resultes from both shock action of air spray and quasi static dilatation of high pressure air. The action of air spray leads to the initial fracture of the wall of borehole and arouses stress wave to propagate in the medium. The quasi static dilatation of high pressure air results in the propagation of initial fractures and produces shear fracture in the medium along the free boundary. Along the direction of minimum burden, the superposition of quasi static and dynamic stress fields can prompt the propagation of cracks.
