Soil mechanics, rock mechanics and soft rock technology

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1994
Soft rocks are often regarded as being a fringe group of geotechnical materials whose engineering behaviour can be extrapolated from the more established areas of soil or rock mechanics. However, there appears to be strong evidence for the argument that soft rocks are in fact central to one continuous geotechnical science which extends from soft soils ...

Parallel Cellular Element Method in Soil-Rock Mechanics

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
A new soil-rock mechanics method—parallel cellular element method is introduced. In this method the integer analysis of structure is changed into a series of part analysis by using the idea of Cellular Automata. It may have a good future in soil-rock mechanics. The basic principle is introduced; the computing steps and results are presented.

CT Investigation of Fracture Mechanism of Soil-Rock Mixtures

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012
Soil-Rock Mixture (SRM) is a unique type of geological material characterized by inhomogeneous composition and complicated structures. This paper investigated the fracture mechanisms that govern the strength and deformation of SRM subjected to uniaxial compression loads by means of computed tomography (CT) techniques.

Similarity in soil and rock mechanics

2003
Why is similarity an interesting issue in mechanics and, in particular, in soil and rock mechanics? The reason is that similarity introduces equivalence classes, i.e. the considered items are grouped into classes in such a way that if item A and item B belong to the same class, then they are in a certain sense equivalent, i.e.
