Due to inherent heterogeneity of geomaterials, rock mechanics involved with extensive lab
experiments and empirical correlations that often lack enough accuracy needed for many …

One of the most basic topics in rock mechanic is the shear strength criteria for rock joints.
Thus, it is of high importance to accurately predict the shear strength of rock joints. In this …

The existing ground well gas injection displacement engineering shows that the technology
of displacement by injecting gas is a coal gas stimulation technology with good application …

Repeated train loading on a jointed rock subgrade can cause excessive displacements of
certain discontinuities leading to instability. Repeated shearing of discontinuities leads to a …

This paper presents a comprehensive study of various Random Forest (RF) models for
predicting increments of pH in groundwater treated by permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) …

Damages caused by the effects of cyclic loading (fatigue) and high temperature (creep and
oxidation) have been considered critical and need to be appropriately evaluated. A series of …

Deformational properties, such as, Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio are considered to
be among the most critical parameters of coal measure rocks for coal bed methane (CBM) …

CO 2 sequestration and enhanced coal bed methane (ECBM) extraction necessitate CO 2
injection into coal reservoirs that affect the coal strength properties and long-term integrity of …

Accurate estimation of shear strength (SS) of rock discontinuities is crucial in rock
engineering applications such as slope stability. This study proposes a stacking ensemble …

Young's modulus of coal is a very important deformational property which dictates how the
material will behave in presence of sub-and super-critical carbon dioxide during …
