Classification Method and Application of Rock Fracture Ability by Supercritical CO2 Blasting
In order to study the fracture ability classification of rock mass under the cracking action of supercritical CO2 phase transition, based on the classification theory of rock mass in blasting engineering, an analytic hierarchy process (AHP)-entropy ...

Study on Interfacial Crack Initiation of Jointed Rock Mass Based on Interface Fracture Mechanics
The fracture of interfacial crack is the main failure type of jointed rock mass. Therefore, it is very important to study the interfacial fracture of jointed rock mass. For the similarity of jointed rock mass and composites (all are composed by two parts,

A Rock Mass Classification Method for Tuff Tunnel Based on the High-Pressure Gas Expansion Method
A precise rock mass grade result is crucial for directing the tunnel excavation engineering design. A novel rock mass classification method for tuff tunnel based on the high-pressure gas expansion method (HPGEM) was proposed, which was primarily built on

Numerical modeling of strain transfer from rock mass to a fibre optic sensor installed inside a grouted borehole [PDF]
, 2023Strain measurements in underground excavation are usually done locally, with extensometers or similar devices placed within 10-15 meters of adit or stope faces, mainly to gage development of the EDZ (excavation damaged zone) and assess its ...

Rock mass ratings and properties
Engineers have excavated rocks for mining and tunnel purposes for hundreds of years. Unfortunately, there have been several occasions where a section or the whole tunnel collapsed in weak or heavily weathered rocks.
