Fracture Processes of Rock-Like Specimens Containing Nonpersistent Fissures under Uniaxial Compression

Many rock engineering accidents have proven that the coalescence of discontinuities in surrounding rock can have a major impact on the security and stable operation of energy infrastructure. To give an insight into the understanding of the crack propagation and coalescence in fissured rock masses, a...
