The propagation of stress waves in rock impacted by a pulsed water jet

Pulsed water jets have been widely applied in the field of underground mining because of their unique advantages. Revealing the mechanical mechanism of rock breaking under a pulsed water jet is significant in advancing the application of pulsed water jets in the rock crushing process. Based on continuum mechanics and interpolation theory, this paper establishes a numerical model to simulate the propagation of stress waves in rock by adopting the...
