Failure characteristics and the energy criterion of rock with a through‐going joint under true‐triaxial unloading conditions: Insights from the DEM model

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 465-481, June 2026.
The rock failure mode is significantly influenced by the contributing factors, such as the joint inclination, the initial confining pressure, and the unloading point. We found six typical rock failure modes after a large number of numerical tests. Abstract Excavation unloading damages rock masses, with preferential failure along geological defects in ...

Effect of the Initial Support of the Tunnel on the Characteristics of Rockburst: Case Study and Mechanism Analysis

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
Rockburst is still a stubborn disease in the field of engineering geology. The present research pays more attention to the influence of geological conditions on rockburst and less to the influence of type and stiffness of engineering support on rockburst.

Geological and geotechnical challenges on the Great Dyke of Zimbabwe and their impact on hardrock pillar design

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 506-538, June 2026.
The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...

Interpretable Tree‐Based Models for Predicting Short‐Term Rockburst Risk Considering Multiple Factors

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 6, Page 2941-2960, June 2026.
Interpretable tree‐based models integrate microseismic, geological, and mining indicators to predict short‐term rockburst risk. SHAP analysis reveals the dominant role of energy‐related features and clarifies nonlinear factor interactions, enabling transparent and reliable early‐warning in deep coal mines.

Review on Rockburst Theory and Types of Rock Support in Rockburst Prone Mines

open access: yesOpen Journal of Safety Science and Technology, 2015
As the depth of mining increases, the occurrence of seismic events is becoming a more common phenomenon causing serious problems regarding to the stability and safety of mines. However, seismicity and the accompanying rockburst phenomena are not a well-defined and well-understood in underground excavations in these times. Efforts to clearly explain the

Study on the Energy Evolution and Stability of Roadway Surrounding Rock Under the “Simultaneous Mining–Driving” Condition

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 2225-2247, April 2026.
Based on theoretical analysis, the energy‐evolution behavior of the surrounding rock at various depths on the solid‐coal side of the 221303 material roadway during the “advancing‐toward‐mining” process was first clarified. Numerical simulations were then performed to validate and elaborate on the theoretical results.
