Abstract

Rock energy theory and its application have an important significance on the analysis of the essential reason of rock failure, and the optimization of design and construction of rock engineering. Recently, research studies on the rock mechanics based on the energy principle and rock mechanics from energy theory have been done. Aiming at the main contents of this field, combining with the experimental results, theoretical analysis, and numerical simulation, and according to the rock energy reserve, release, and dissipation mechanism, the energy conversion characteristics of rock during the deformation and failure are summarized. Then, the various energy damage constitutive models of rock are introduced. Finally, the research on rock energy strength criteria and engineering applications of rock energy theory are reviewed. Moreover, the scope of their applications is clarified, and the defects and application prospect of these studies are proposed. However, there are still many key scientific problems in rock energy theory and its application research. Based on above, the prospects for future research in this field are provided.
