Filled inclusions in rock discontinuities play a key role in the mechanical characteristics of
the rock and thereby influence the stability of rock engineering. In this study, a series of …

Mechanical behavior and energy evolution of rock around the tunnel are critical for
evaluating the instability of geotechnical engineering. To reveal the influence of tunnel …

Studying the energy evolution characteristics of coal in a deep underground engineering
environment will help people to understand the evolution process and induced mechanism …

Coupled static-dynamic tests were carried out on notched semi-circular bend (NSCB)
granitic specimens using a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) device, to …

Underground rock structures are frequently subjected to water erosion and dynamic
disturbance simultaneously. Herein, in order to study the coupled effects of water and high …

Different defects are widely distributed inside natural rock masses, and the development of
these defects poses a potentially severe threat to the entire structural stability and safety …

To study the differences in the mechanical properties and the strength variation of the
expansive slurry-fractured rock mass composites (ESFC) with different slurry thicknesses …

Extensive true-triaxial unloading tests are conducted on rectangular Miluo granite
specimens to investigate their crack propagation behavior and peak unloading strength …

Rocks are usually subjected to cyclic wetting-drying due to the periodical changes in moist
condition. To investigate the effect of wetting-drying cycles on the fracture behavior of …

Rockburst is a severe geological hazard that restricts deep mine operations and tunnel
constructions. To overcome the shortcomings of widely used algorithms in rockburst …
