One of the methods used to investigate the damaged zone in rock structure is the acoustic emission method. This method is based on receiving the elastic waves that are produced by deformation and cracking of the rock mass around the underground excavation. In this research, a study is conducted on the rock samples by a numerical method to investigate the damaged zone caused by the excavat...

because of production process and constrains conditions, circular graphene sheet may be opposed to structural defect and pin hole, respectively. some of the defects and pin hole on a circular graphene sheet can be considered as an eccentric hole on the sheet. hence, analyzing behavior of circular graphene sheet with an eccentric hole is important. free vibration of an eccentric annular graphene...

In response to the severe floor heave problem of the+1100m track crosscut in Liuyuanzi Coal Mine, it was found that exists a hard top and soft bottom surrounding rock environment. FLAC3D simulation used study stress, plastic zone, displacement when is supported by bolt-mesh+Shotcrete+36U-type steel combined support circular shed support. The results show latter reduces 57%.

Drilling and blasting have numerous applications in the civil and mining engineering. Due to the two major components of rock masses, namely the intact rock matrix and the discontinuities, their behavior is a complicated process to be analyzed. The purpose of this work is to investigate the effects of the geomechanical and geometrical parameters of rock and discontinuities on the rock mass blas...

In this paper a general analytical solution is obtained to find stress distribution in a finite elastic plate with a circular or square hole subjected to arbitrary biaxial partial loading using modified boundary condition by assuming plane stress conditions. The method employed is based on solution of circular hole in finite rectangular plate. This plate is mapped to circular ones and the parti...

This paper presents the methodology in which two computer codes—TOUGH2 and FLAC3D—are linked and jointly executed for coupled thermal–hydrologic–mechanical (THM) analysis of multiphase fluid flow, heat transfer, and deformation in fractured and porous rock. TOUGH2 is a well-established code for geohydrological analysis with multiphase, multicomponent fluid flow and heat transport, while FLAC3D ...

In the present study, stress analysis and explicit solution of rectangular plate with arbitrarily located circular hole, subjected to linear normal stresses on two opposite edges, has been investigated. Airy function and hoop stresses occurring at the edge of the circular have been computed. In this method 2D dimension elasticity and Airy stress function was used. The present method for explici...

In this paper, the transverse vibrations of rectangular plate with circular central hole have been investigated and the natural frequencies of the mentioned plate with point supported by Rayleigh-Ritz Method have been obtained. In this research, the effect of the hole is taken into account by subtracting the energies of the hole domain from the total energies of the whole plate. To determine th...

The paper presents summary of the work carried out by the author on the modelling of jointed rock mass with some field applications. The equivalent continuum analyses approach presented attempts to use statistical relations, which are simple and obtained after analyzing a large data from the literature on laboratory test results of jointed rock masses. Systematic investigations were done includ...
