Rock Slope Stability Analysis Using Discrete Element Method
Rock slope stability depends very much on the strength features of the rock and the geometrical and strength characteristics of the discontinuities (e.g., roughness, wall strength and persistence). Since a rock mass is not a continuum, its behavior is dominated by such discontinuities as faults, joints and bedding planes. Also, Rock slope instability is a major hazard for human activities and o...

متن کاملDiscrete element modeling of a mining-induced rock slide
Slopes are subjected to stress redistributions during underground mining activities, and this may eventually cause deformation or landslide. This paper takes Madaling landslide in Guizhou Province, China as a case study to investigate the failure mechanism and its run-out behaviours by using discrete element method. Previous qualitative analysis indicated that the slope experienced four stages ...
متن کاملRock fragmentation and optimization of drilling tools
In this chapter possibilities of the improvement of drilling tool efficiency on the basis of the analysis of mechanisms of rock destruction and some methods of the information theory are considered. Physical mechanisms of destruction of hard and plastic rocks under different conditions of mechanical loading are reviewed. Some physical effects which allow to improve the efficiency of rock drilli...
متن کاملDiscrete element modeling of explosion-induced fracture extension in jointed rock masses
The explosion process of explosives in a borehole applies a very high pressure on its surrounding rock media. This process can initiate and propagate rock fractures, and finally, may result in the rock fragmentation. Rock fragmentation is mainly caused by the propagation of inherent pre-existing fractures of the rock mass and also from the extension of the newly formed cracks within the intact ...
