Read MoreA decay function model for the integrity loss of rock when subjected to recurrent cycles of freezing–thawing and heating–cooling
Rocks are used in engineering works as monument or building stone and as architectural covering stone. As a result, they can be subjected ...
Read MoreAn estimation method for cover pressure re-establishment distance and pressure distribution in the goaf of longwall coal mines
Measurement of deformations and stresses in the goaf of longwall panels is difficult due to the inaccessibility of the waste area. This ...
