AE Characteristics of Rockburst Tendency for Granite Influenced by Water Under Uniaxial Loading

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
In deep mining, granite is stored with high energy duing to its structural integrity and brittleness. Rock bursts usually occur because stress changes and mining disturbances during mining, which seriously threaten safe production. Focusing on the factor
