Comparative Study on Dynamic Mechanical Properties and Energy Dissipation of Rocks under Impact Loads by Renshu Yang, Weiyu Li, Zhongwen Yue

“…The three kinds of rock required different incident energies to reach maximum energy utilization efficiency. (4) The equivalent average fragment size of the three rock types decreased as a function of power with increasing impact velocity and energy dissipation density. (5) Under the same incident wave, although the reflection energy, transmission energy, and degree of fragmentation of the three kinds of rock showed significant differences, the differences in dissipation energy were small.…”
