Influence of Geostress Orientation on Fracture Response of Deep Underground Cavity Subjected to Dynamic Loading

Deep underground cavity is often damaged under the combined actions of high excavating-induced local stresses and dynamic loading. The fracturing zone and failure type are much related to the initial geostress state. To investigate the influence of geostress orientation on fracture behaviours of und...
