Numerical Analysis on Failure Modes and Mechanisms of Mine Pillars under Shear Loading

Severe damage occurs frequently in mine pillars subjected to shear stresses. The empirical design charts or formulas for mine pillars are not applicable to orebodies under shear. In this paper, the failure process of pillars under shear stresses was investigated by numerical simulations using the ro...
