We explored the failure mechanism of rock underultra-high strain rates using 3D numerical modeling of the light gas gun test.
Rock cutting and rock penetration are typical problems in civil, mining, petroleum, and geothermal engineering disciplines. Theyinvolve d...
In this work, comprehensive numerical modelling was conducted on the full-scale linear cutting test with a TBM disc cutter. Several numer...
Zonal disintegration has been frequently encountered in many tunnelling projects such as deep mining and watertunnels in hydropower stations. The ...
Most rocks have complex microstructures, which are regardedas the most important factor in determining their mechanicalproperties and transport behaviors [1,2]. Moreover, t...
