Effect of loading rate on fracture toughness and failure micromechanisms in marble
Qianbing Zhang,Jian Zhao +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a micromechanical model to examine the intergranular and transgranular fracture properties of a marble and found that fracture toughness and surface roughness were dependent on loading rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new hard rock TBM performance prediction model for project planning
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new TBM performance prediction model based on a database of actual machine performance from different hard rock TBM tunneling projects, and analyzed the available data and offer new equations using statistical methods, relationships between different geological and TBM operational parameters were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Opportunities and Challenges in Deep Mining: A Brief Review
Pathegama Gamage Ranjith,Jian Zhao,Minghe Ju,Radhika V.S. De Silva,Tharaka Dilanka Rathnaweera,Adheesha K.M.S. Bandara +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the current global status of deep mining and highlight some of the newest technological achievements and opportunities associated with rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering in deep mining.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of multiple parallel fractures on apparent attenuation of stress waves in rock masses
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of multiple parallel planar fractures on the apparent attenuation of normally incident one-dimensional elastic waves are studied. But the authors focus on the attenuative effect of each fracture with the displacement discontinuity model, and do not consider complex interfracture multiple wave reflections with the method of characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oscillation elimination in the Hopkinson bar apparatus and resultant complete dynamic stress-strain curves for rocks
TL;DR: In this article, an improved experimental approach for eliminating oscillation that exists in the dynamic stress-strain response of rocks and other brittle materials obtained from tests using a split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB).
