摘　　要：This paper investigates the mechanisms of rock failure related to axial splitting and shear failure due to hoop stresses in cylindrical specimens.The hoop stresses are caused by normal viscous stress.The rheological dynamics theory(RDT)is used,with the mechanical parameters being determined by P-and S-wave velocities.The angle of internal friction is determined by the ratio of Young's modulus and the dynamic modulus,while dynamic viscosity defines cohesion and normal viscous stress.The effect of frequency on cohesion is considered.The initial stress state is defined by the minimum cohesion at the elastic limit when axial splitting can occur.However,as radial cracks grow,the stress state becomes oblique and moves towards the shear plane.The maximum and nonlinear cohesions are defined by the rock parameters under compressive strength when the radial crack depth reaches a critical value.The efficacy and precision of RDT are validated through the presentation of ultrasonic measurements on sandstone and rock specimens sourced from the literature.The results presented in dimensionless diagrams can be utilized in microcrack zones in the absence of lateral pressure in rock masses that have undergone disintegration due to excavation.
