Opis

A collection of papers addressing the issue of the failure of rock engineering structures. This phenomenon occurs in different forms depending on the geometry of structure, material properties of intact rock, structure of rock mass, environmental conditions and initial state of stress.

Spis treści

Failure phenomena and its mechanism in model tests, surface structures and underground openings; theoretical approaches (strain localization, fracture mechanics, damage mechanics, plasticity and visco-plasticity theory); numerical approaches (FEM, BEM and other methods); case studies (slopes, foundations, dams, tunnels, underground caverns, underground mining).
