Experimental Rock Stability Assessment Using the Frozen–Thawing Test

Experimental Rock Stability Assessment Using the Frozen–Thawing Test

From a geological engineering perspective, the episodic nature of massive rock slides can be explained by brittle tensile fracturing and time-dependent strength degradation. In this study, we focused on assessing rock mass strength degradation mainly through deformation of the rock mass, shear-plane...

Zusammenfassung:From a geological engineering perspective, the episodic nature of massive rock slides can be explained by brittle tensile fracturing and time-dependent strength degradation. In this study, we focused on assessing rock mass strength degradation mainly through deformation of the rock mass, shear-plane development, and progressive rock slope failure over time.
