Application and prospects of 3D printing in physical experiments of rock mass mechanics and engineering: materials, methodologies and models
Abstract The existence of joints or other kinds of discontinuities has a dramatic effect on the stability of rock excavations and engineering. As a result, a great challenge in rock mass mechanics testing is to prepare rock or rock-like samples with defects. In recent years, 3D printing technology h...
