This paper presents the hydro-mechanical behaviors of a red sandstone from the Three
Gorges reservoir area using laboratory testing and numerical modelling. A series of …

Investigations of multi-physical processes in geomaterials have gained increasing attention
due to the ongoing interest in solving complex geoenvironmental problems. This book …

For deep hard–brittle rock mass engineering in a complicated hydrogeological environment,
deformation and damage of the surrounding rock during excavation are often driven by the …

The macroscopic behavior of complex heterogeneous materials is governed by the
interactions between their constituents at the microstructural scale. This has fostered a large …

This contribution presents an integrated and automated methodology for the computational
analysis of permeability alterations in natural rocks under varying stress states, taking …

In this study, in situ water injection tests and numerical modeling in conjunction with core
logs and television image measurements were applied for an investigation of the hydraulic …

This paper examines the axisymmetric problem of a penny-shaped crack located in a
poroelastic halfspace that is modelled by Biot poroelasticity. The paper first examines the …

An approach to multiscale modelling of the hydro-mechanical behaviour of geomaterials in
the framework of computational homogenization is presented. At the micro level a …

This chapter examines the influence of axial stress‐induced closure of a fracture on its
permeability. The experiments were conducted on a cylinder of Barre Granite measuring …

Porosity waves correspond to a steady‐state solution to the coupled hydraulic and rheologic
equations that govern the flow of the fluid through the matrix and matrix deformation. This …
