About this book The book introduces the reader to the fundamentals of rock mechanics and to its application to economic construction in rock. Models describe the mechanical properties and the permeability of rock. Numerical methods for evaluating the stability of structures in rock are given to ...
Hence, a book entitle Fundamen- tals of Rock Mechanics must also treat certain topics that are either unique to rocks, or at any rate which assume great importance for rocks, such as friction along rough surfaces, degradation an dfailure under compressive loads, coupling between mechanical ...

The engineering mechanics-based approach to the solution of mining rock mechanics problems used in this book, requires prior definition of the stress-strain behaviour of the rock mass. Important aspects of this behaviour are the constants relating stresses and strains in the elastic range, the stres...
Clearly, an understanding of the presence and mechanics of the discontinuities, both singly and in the rock mass context, is therefore of paramount importance to civil, mining and petroleum engineers. Bearing this in mind, it is surprising that until now there has been no book dedicated ...
