Analyzing the potential for unstable mine failures with the calculation of released energy in numerical models

<p> Unstable failure in underground mining occurs when a volume of material is loaded beyond its strength and displaces suddenly. It is recognized on various scales, from small rock bursts to the collapse of pillars or entire sections of a mine. The energy that is released during smaller sca...
