Abstract
In deep rock engineering, evaluating the likelihood of rock burst is imperative to ensure safety. This study proposes a new metric, the post-peak dissipated energy index, which accounts for strain rate and size effects in assessment of the rock burst proneness of a rock mass. To investigate rock burst proneness, conventional compression tests were conducted on limestone and slate samples with different length to diameter (L/D) ratios (ranging from 0.3 to 1.5) at four different strain rates (0.005, 0.01, 0.5, and 1.0 s−1). Based on the testing observations, the actual rock burst proneness was classified into three categories (no risk, low risk, and high risk). A new criterion was also established using the post-peak dissipated energy index, which is the ratio of elastic energy to total dissipated energy. The impact of the strain rate and L/D ratio on rock burst proneness was analyzed. The results indicated that increased strain rates cause a strong hardening effect, leading to staged growth of rock burst proneness. However, the rock burst proneness decreases non-linearly with the increasing L/D ratio. The accuracy of the proposed criterion was validated by comparison with existing criteria, demonstrating that the energy-based index ensures a reliable evaluation of the rock burst proneness of a rock mass. The proposed method has excellent potential for practical application in deep rock engineering.
