- Abstract
Crack propagation of control fissures in perilous rock under loads is a key process in the failure of perilous rock. Based on the loading mechanism, the control fissures are classified into compression shear and tension shear types. By introducing a model of seepage stress, the calculating principle of the stress intensity factor and the propagation orientation of control fissure under seepage stress are put forward using fracture mechanics methods. Using Shoulishan perilous rock in the Wanzhou district of Chongqing, P. R. China, as an example, the calculated results show that there is an obvious increase of the stress intensity factor. The influence of hydrostatic pressure and hydrodynamic pressure also are analyzed.
