1. True Triaxial Testing of Rocks

   Edited by Marek Kwasniewski, Xiaochun Li, Manabu Takahashi

   Series: Geomechanics Research Series

   This is the first book ever published on the problems of true triaxial testing of rocks addressing all aspects of true triaxial testing of rocks, including: (i) true triaxial testing techniques and procedures; (ii) test results: strength, deformability, failure mode, permeability, acoustic emission...

2. Experimental Rock Mechanics

   By Kiyoo Mogi

   Series: Geomechanics Research Series

   Fracture and flow of rocks under stress and their geophysical and seismological implications raise fundamental questions in rock mechanics, particularly in the areas of tectonophysics and seismology. This text exclusively addresses the deformation and fracture of rock specimens under general...

3. Mechanical Behaviour of Rocks Under High Pressure Conditions

   By Mitsuhiko Shimada

   Series: Geomechanics Research Series

   A summmary of work carried out in the field of experimental rock mechanics. The title looks at triaxial testing, types of brittle fracture and the geophysical and geological implications of two types of fracture amongst other topics which should be of interest to engineers....
