Influence of water content on the failure modes and macro-micromechanical properties of sulfate rocks: Insights from experimental and DEM simulations

open access: yesUnderground Space
The initial water content significantly affects rock mechanics, especially with swelling minerals. However, the effects of initial water content on the mechanical properties and failure mode of sulfate rocks remain unclear.

Analysis of a rock slide stabilized with a toe-berm: A case study in British Columbia, Canada

open access: yes, 2004
Practical experience has shown that slope movement can be controlled by the placement of a berm near the toe of the moving mass. During construction of the Revelstoke project (British Columbia, Canada), excavation of a large highway rock cut triggered ...

Rock Wedge Stability Assessment : A Comparative Analysis of Limit Equilibrium and Discrete Element Methods

open access: yes
Rock wedge stability is a common concern in underground excavations. Since the wedge stability influences the support design, it is important to use a wedge stability analysis method that can capture factors like excavation geometry, joint parameters and

Dynamic effect and stress wave analysis by transient unloading of a rock sample under high stress condition

open access: yesKuwait Journal of Science, 2019
In this paper, the strain rate equation of a rock sample end block unit was obtained during the transient unloading process. The strain rate reached a 101 s-1 magnitude, indicating that the rock sample had an obvious dynamic effect according to the ...
