Widespread influence of fluids on rock strength and deformation characteristics from grain-scale to lithospheric-scale has led to a necessity of understanding the hydro-mechanical coupling in strength, deformation, and fracturing behaviors of rock materials. This book provides experimental and numerical approaches for investigating the effects of hydro-mechanical coupling on shear-induced rock fractures using Punch Through Shear experiments and 2D hydro-mechanical coupled bonded particle model simulations. Especially, this book presents how the conventional 2D bonded particle modeling was...
