Experimental Rock Mechanics (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book details experimental methods developed and results obtained by the author and his co-workers. They explore the deformation and fracture of rock specimens under the general triaxial compression in which all three principal stresses are different. Also discusses the experimental results of the effect of the intermediate principal stress, in graphic and numerical forms. It shows the importance of this effect on the ultimate strength of rocks. Using these results, the author proposes a new failure criterion and presents various devices for reliable experimental tests with high accuracy.

Autorenporträt

Kiyoo Mogi (1929, Japan) holds a PhD degree in Geophysics and is Emeritus Professor and former Director of the Earthquake Research Institute of the University of Tokyo, Japan. He devoted a major part of his career to studying the fracture and flow of rocks under stress and their relation to natural earthquakes. From these studies, it was derived that the degree of mechanical heterogeneity had an important role in rock fracture. By developing the true triaxial compression machine, Kiyoo Mogi could study the mechanical behavior of rocks under asymmetric stress conditions and was able to propose new, general failure criteria. Prof. Mogi is also the author of 'Earthquake Prediction', 355 pp., 1985, Academic Press, Tokyo, Japan.
