The use of three artificial neural network (ANN)-based models for the prediction of
unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of granite using three non-destructive test …

A traditional block caving mine considers the development of an undercut level that allows
blocky or veined rock masses to fracture, fail, and unravel when the undercut area is large …

The uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rock is an essential property of rock material in
different relevant applications, such as rock slope, tunnel construction, and foundation. It …

Due to inherent heterogeneity of geomaterials, rock mechanics involved with extensive lab
experiments and empirical correlations that often lack enough accuracy needed for many …

Cemented tailings and waste-rock backfill (CTWB) is an effective way to solve the problem of
mine solid waste. Waste-rock content is an important factor affecting UCS, but fully …

In rock, mining, and/or tunneling engineering, determination of uniaxial compressive
strength (UCS) of rocks is an important and crucial task, which is often estimated from readily …

The exploration of the mechanical responses of the battery pack system (BPS) when
subjected to dynamic impact loads is crucial for the safety of power batteries during …

Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of intact limestone rocks is very significant in
geotechnical engineering in order to design structures that are currently being built on/in …
