Excavation-induced deep hard rock fracturing: Methodology and applications

To analyze and predict the mechanical behaviors of deep hard rocks, some key issues concerning rock fracturing mechanics for deep hard rock excavations are discussed. First, a series of apparatuses and methods have been developed to test the mechanical properties and fracturing behaviors of hard roc...
