It is significant to investigate the hardening-damage characteristics of the sandstone of the
roof under cyclic loading for the prevention and control of roof disasters and safe and …

The mechanical response of rocks subjected to compressive differential cyclic loading (DCL)
with various stress rates is rarely investigated via numerical simulation at the microscopic …

The mechanical characteristics and fracture mechanisms of rocks are usually affected by
water–rock interaction. This study conducted uniaxial compression tests on sandstone to …

In high‐temperature geological engineering applications, cyclic loads induced by various
factors (eg, earthquakes, excavation, and blasting) can exacerbate the thermal damage of …

Cyclic loads (such as blasting and excavation) may cause disturbance to the rock mass,
which can induce fatigue damage in the rock mass within the excavation influence range. To …

Porous rocks exhibit mechanical behaviors characterized by high compressibility and
stiffness enhancement under quasi-static cyclic loads. In this study, we investigated the …

In cold regions, rock fractures can expand under the force of frost heave pressure, potentially
triggering severe geological catastrophes such as collapses and landslides on rock slopes …

The work of stone breakers involves heavy and repetitive physical activity, which can
increase the risk of injuries and health problems, one of which is work fatigue. Before work …

In order to clarify the compressive strength performance of nano concrete under harsh
conditions of freeze-thaw cycles, a study was conducted on the prediction of compressive …
