Rock Engineering and Rock Mechanics: Structures in and on Rock Masses
2014Rock Engineering and Rock Mechanics: Structures in and on Rock Masses covers the most important topics and state-of-the-art in the area of rock mechanics, with an emphasis on structures in and on rock masses. The 255 contributions (including 6 keynote lectures) from the 2014 ISRM European Rock Mechanics Symposium (EUROCK 2014, Vigo, Spain, 27-29 ...

On the Microscopical Structure of Rocks
Proceedings of the Yorkshire Geological Society, 1886Whilst Geology was still in its infancy, more attention was paid to the broader or more general features of the earth’s structure and past history, than to the minuter details of its component parts. The arrangement of the rocks forming that portion of its crust accessible to man, their organic contents as affording a key to their relative Chronology ...

Rock differs from most other engineering materials in that it contains fractures of one type or another which render its structure discontinuous. Thus a clear distinction must be made between the rock element or rock material on the one hand and the rock mass on the other.

THE EFFECT OF ROCK BIT CUTTING STRUCTURE ON ROCK BREAKING EFFICIENCY
Proceedings of International Meeting on Petroleum Engineering, 1986ABSTRACT A study of the effect of rock bit cutting structure on rock breaking efficiency was made with full scale bits for soft to medium formations on a laboratory testing rig. An analysis of the relationship between rock breakage and cutting structure based on the drilling rate, bottom hole pattern and operating parameters revealed the

Structural response and rock bolting of a rock mass
International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1987Abstract Stability of a discontinuous rock mass, represented as a blocky rock mass, is examined and defined in terms of stress redistribution and formation of hinges. The anisotropic compliance of the rock mass controls the initial stress distribution and, as small deformational rotations occur, finite deformations with the anisotropic compliances ...

Earth as a planet under firm control of life processes since more than 3 Ga has evolved global biogeochemical cycles, biogeomorphogenetic processes and structures also called plates or global tectonics including global climate and movement of water masses. These processes have deep impact on the shape and thickness of continental land masses as well as

The manner in which small-scale structures develop in the more resistant or brittle rocks, which are not appreciably deformed before rupture, is analogous to the behaviour of brittle materials — cast iron, concrete, etc. — when tested in the laboratory. The rock fails, when compressed, either by tension or by shear.
