Fracture Initiation and Propagation in Low Porosity Crystalline Rocks: Implications for Excavation Damage Zone (EDZ) Mechanics
… approach for a three-dimensional discontinuum Grain-Based Model (GBM) complemented the laboratory investigation of crack damage in brittle rocks. The developed approach provides an in-depth understanding of the micro-mechanics of crack damage and demonstrates great potential as a predictive …

Mechanistic study of menisci motion within homogeneously and heterogeneously wet porous media
… wet). The goal of this research is to model the detailed configuration of wetting and non-wetting phases within homogeneously and heterogeneously wet porous media. We use a dense random pack of equal spheres as a model porous medium. The geometry of the sphere pack is complex but it is …

Mechanical properties and microcracking behaviour of heterogeneous rocks after high-temperature treatment
… experiments, numerical simulations, theoretical modeling, and machine learning techniques is employed to gain deeper insights into the thermo-mechanical response of such rock materials. The main research contents and conclusions are as follows: (1) In terms of laboratory tests, the digital image …
