Dynamic tensile strength and fracture evolution of characteristic shale with bedding and hole using linear regression theory

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 426-445, June 2026.
The spiral conical perforations generated during methane in situ explosion fracturing operations lead to tensile fracture propagation in shale reservoirs being governed by the combined effects of impact pressure, bedding, and aperture under explosive loading. Using multiple regression analysis and digital image correlation technology, the mechanisms of

Prediction of strength and deformability of an interlocked blocky rock mass using UDEC

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017
The accurate prediction of strength and deformability characteristics of rock mass is a challenging issue. In practice, properties of a rock mass are often estimated from available empirical relationships based on the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS).

External Vibrations on Early‐Age Concrete: A Review

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Scientific illustration of external vibration, their influencing properties and effects, possible outcomes and measures adapted. ABSTRACT Early‐age concrete exhibits limited mechanical strength, making it highly susceptible to external disturbances such as vibrations from construction activities, traffic, or nearby machinery which can disrupt internal ...

Correlation between uniaxial compressive strength and point-load index strength [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In verifying the material properties of rock, laboratory test need to be carried out to ensure a safe design of structures. Among the most common rock properties verified in laboratory are uniaxial compressive strength test (UCS) and point-load index ...

High Temperature Friction and Strength of Felsite and Basalt: Implications for Supercritical EGS at Krafla, Iceland

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract One promising potential site for extracting supercritical geothermal fluids is the Krafla volcano, Iceland, into which a borehole was drilled very close to a shallow rhyolite magma chamber at about 2 km depth. Besides the technical challenge to drill in this setting, the extreme temperature conditions of T > 900°C close to the magma body may ...

Prediction of uniaxial compressive strength and modulus of elasticity for Travertine samples using regression and artificial neural networks

open access: yes, 2010
Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) and modulus of elasticity (E) are the most important rock parameters required and determined for rock mechanical studies in most civil and mining projects.

Comparative Evaluation of Chemical and Physical Expansive Agents in Cemented Paste Backfill: Expansion Behavior, Mechanical Response, and Microstructural Mechanisms

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents an assessment of four representative expansive additives—calcium sulphoaluminate–calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, sodium lauryl sulfate, and sodium abietate—and their effects on the expansion behavior, mechanical development, and microstructural characteristics of cemented paste backfill (CPB).

Assessment of Scale Effects on Uniaxial Compressive Strength in Rock Salt

open access: yes, 2009
In mining design studies, the determination of the in situ strength parameters of a rock mass is difficult, expensive, and time consuming. Therefore, designers prefer an empirical approach, which has been developed based on laboratory studies.

Comprehensive study on the Python-based regression machine learning models for prediction of uniaxial compressive strength using multiple parameters in Charnockite rocks

open access: yesScientific Reports
The strength of rock under uniaxial compression, commonly known as Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS), plays a crucial role in various geomechanical applications such as designing foundations, mining projects, slopes in rocks, tunnel construction, and ...
