As a kind of dynamic fracturephenomena, rockburst has characteristics of strain localization, which is considered as aone-dimensional shear problem subjected to normal compressive stress and tangential shear stress.The constitutive relation of rock material is bilinear (elastic and strain softening) and sensitiveto shear strain rate. The solutions proposed based on gradient-dependent plasticity show thatintense plastic strain is concentrated in fault band and the thickness of the band depends on thecharacteristic length of rock material. The post-peak stiffness of the fault band was determinedaccording to the constitutive parameters of rock material and shear strain rate. Fault bandundergoing strain softening and elastic rock mass outside the band constitute a system and theinstability criterion of the system was proposed based on energy theory. The criterion depends onthe constitutive relation of rock material, the structural size and the strain rate. The staticresult regardless of the strain rate is the special case of the present analytical solution. Highstrain rate can lead to instability of the system.展开更多
