  1. 1. Post-failure behaviour of brittle rock

    Author : Hossein M. Hakami; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och Berganläggningsteknik;

    Abstract : The study of the post-failure behaviour of brittle rocks in the laboratory needs stiff and servo-controlled testing machines. Yet, the problem is not completely solved unless a suitable feedback signal is created for the servo-loop of the testing machine. READ MORE

  2. 2. Plug shear failure in nailed timber connections : avoiding brittle and promoting ductile failures

    Author : Helena Johnsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träbyggnad; Timber Structures;

    Abstract : Mechanical timber connections can fail both in a brittle and a ductile manner depending on the joint layout. Plug shear failure in nailed timber connections is a brittle failure mode, which shall be avoided in timber structures. READ MORE

  4. 4. Wellbore stability analysis based on a new true-triaxial failure criterion

    Author : Adel Al-Ajmi; Robert Zimmerman; Bernt Aadnoy; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; failure criteria; Mogi failure criterion; intermediate principal stress; polyaxial test data; wellbore stability; Geoengineering and mining engineering; Geoteknik och gruvteknik;

    Abstract : A main aspect of wellbore stability analysis is the selection of an appropriate rock failure criterion. The most commonly used criterion for brittle failure of rocks is the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. READ MORE

  5. 5. Simulation of the progressive failure of brittle rock

    Author : Upendra K. Singh; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och Berganläggningsteknik;

    Abstract : The anisotropic response of a brittle rock due to the formation of cracks under general applied loads has been taken as a continuous phenomenon on a suitable macroscopic scale. The response is described by a continuum field variable called the "damage vector". READ MORE
