Elements of Engineering Geology and Geotechnical Engineering in the Homeric Poems [PDF]

open access: yesHistory of Mechanism and Machine Science, 2008
This paper examines the information provided by Homer related to the fields of engineering geology and geotechnical engineering. The information is subsequently compared against archaeological findings. The Homeric descriptions of battle scenes, of ancient cities and the geologic environment suggest that an understanding of some of the geologic ...

Weakening Investigation of Reservoir Rock by Coupled Uniaxial Compression, Computed Tomography and Digital Image Correlation Methods: A Case Study

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Cyclic wetting and drying treatment is commonly used to accelerate the weakening process of reservoir rock. The weakening is reflected in strength variation and structure variation, while the latter receives less attention.

Where geology meets engineering in hydrothermally altered environments: considering veins in geotechnical engineering [PDF]

open access: yesMassMin 2020: Proceedings of the Eighth International Conference & Exhibition on Mass Mining, 2020
The mechanical properties of intact rock and fractures are key components that control rockmass behaviour in homogeneous rockmasses, which are the basis of many field characterization protocols, laboratory measurement, and numerical modelling approaches in geotechnical engineering.
