The freezing method is an effective approach for constructing coal mine shafts through water-
rich soft rock strata. The frozen wall produced by this technique stops the movement of water …

Grouting is an important method to reinforce fractured rock mass in underground
engineering. To improve the grouting reinforcement effect of fractured rock mass, the theory …

A non-local state-based peridynamic method (PD) is employed to simulate the initiation and
propagation of the hydraulic fracturing. This study presents a novel 3D simulation of the …

To explore the fracture characteristics of rock under the interaction of fatigue load and creep
load, fatigue–creep interactive loading experiments were performed on red sandstone with …

In maintaining the efficiency of coal mining, the stability of roadway plays a significant role,
as it is closely related to the production of coal and the safety of personnel. In deep …

The freezing method is widely used in the construction of vertical shafts in water-rich strata.
The formed frozen rock wall is often involved in the creep process, and in particular, the …

A strong freeze-thaw (FT) weathering effect influences the strength of rock in the high-
altitude areas of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. To study the long-term deterioration …

This paper proposed an improved stepwise algorithm to simulate the grout diffusion in a
single fracture considering the dynamic grouting parameter boundary condition and the …

Triaxial compression experiments were carried out on deep-buried marble specimens to
investigate their short-term and creep mechanical behavior under cyclic loading. First, based …

It is important to confirm the long‐term strength of rock materials for the purpose of
evaluating the long‐term stability of rock engineering. In this study, a series of triaxial creep …
