Rock and coal fractures together with micro seismic vibration is a common occurrence during mining, however, it is very uncommon for coal and rock to be propelled into the roadway. Irrespective, such occurrences do occur and appear to require significantly more energy than is available from strain energy release during coal cutting. The sources of energy which can contribute to the propulsion of coal from the face or ribs are typically strain energy from the surrounding ground, seismic energy from a rapid rupture of the ground in the vicinity, or rapid expansion of gas from within the burst source area. The aim of this paper is to briefly review the bursts which may be related to strain energy, seismic energy and gas energy.展开更多

The post-peak stiffness of rock specimens subjected to direct shear was derivedstrictly based on gradient-dependent plasticity, which can not be obtained from the classicalelastoplastic theory. Analytical solutions for the dissipated energy of rock burst were proposedwhether the slope of the post-peak shear stress-shear deformation curve is positive or not. Theanalytical solutions show that shear stress level, confining pressure, shear strength, brittleness,strain rate and heterogeneity of rock materials have important influence on the dissipated energy.The larger value of the dissipated energy means that the capacity of energy dissipation in the formof shear bands is superior and a lower magnitude of rock burst is expected under the condition ofthe same work done by external shear force. The possibility of rock burst is reduced for a lowersoftening modulus or a larger thickness of shear bands.展开更多

An analytical solution of the burst pressure for pipes with capped ends is derived, which includes the strength differential effect and takes the influence of strength criterion on the burst pressure into account. In addition, a USC- based analytical solution of the burst pressure for end-opened pipes under the internal pressure is obtained. By discussion, it is found that for the end-capped pipes, the influence of different yield criteria and the strength differential effect on the burst pressure are significant, while for the end-opened pipes, the burst pressure is independent of the specific form of the strength criterion and strength difference in tension and compression.展开更多

The analytical solutions of burst pressure and the corresponding equivalent stress and strain are obtained for thin-walled pipes, which can take into account the effects of material plastic anisotropy and strain hardening exponent. The influences of plastic anisotropy on the burst pressure and the corresponding equivalent stress and strain are discussed. It is shown that the burst pressure and the corresponding equivalent stress and strain are dependent upon the plastic anisotropy of material, and the degree of dependence is related to the strain hardening exponent of material. In addition, the effects of the strain hardening exponent on burst failure are investigated.展开更多
