To explore precursor rock failure information near a tunnel excavation boundary under
different excavation rates, biaxial compression tests of granite failure under different loading …

In cold climate regions, rock engineering structures are subjected to repeated processes of
freeze–thaw weathering and consequently the integrity of these structures will gradually …

The tensile-shear interactive damage (TSID) model is a novel and powerful constitutive
model for rock-like materials. This study proposes a methodology to calibrate the TSID …

Strain rock burst is one of the main types of rock bursts. Studying the mechanical response
and acoustic emission characteristics of coal under quasi-static loading is significant to …

Compression testing schemes that induce failure in rock specimens primarily through a
reduction in confining stress have become increasingly common in recent years. Despite …

In the construction process of alpine regions, the construction zone is often subjected to
blasting vibrations, heavy truck transportation vibrations, earthquakes and other dynamic …

In the present work, dynamic stress–strain response of five sedimentary and three
metamorphic rocks from different regions of India, eg Kota sandstone, Dholpur sandstone …

The uniaxial compression behavior of building sandstone at high strain rates is not well
understood. In this study, standard and flattened cylinders were fabricated for dynamic and …

The dynamic properties of rock under different strain rates and temperatures play an
important role in the stability of rock mass. To investigate the dynamic behavior of granite …

Basalt rock is often used as a building material and in architectural design of building by
constructing thin veneer and facade. Thus, dynamic characterization of basalt rock is of …
