Download or read book Guidelines for Open Pit Slope Design in Weak Rocks written by Derek Martin and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2018-01-10 with total page 791 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weak rocks encountered in open pit mines cover a wide variety of materials, with properties ranging between soil and rock. As such, they can provide a significant challenge for the slope designer. For these materials, the mass strength can be the primary control in the design of the pit slopes, although structures can also play an important role. Because of the typically weak nature of the materials, groundwater and surface water can also have a controlling influence on stability. Guidelines for Open Pit Slope Design in Weak Rocks is a companion to Guidelines for Open Pit Slope Design, which was published in 2009 and dealt primarily with strong rocks. Both books were commissioned under the Large Open Pit (LOP) project, which is sponsored by major mining companies. These books provide summaries of the current state of practice for the design, implementation and assessment of slopes in open pits, with a view to meeting the requirements of safety, as well as the recovery of anticipated ore reserves. This book, which follows the general cycle of the slope design process for open pits, contains 12 chapters. These chapters were compiled and written by industry experts and contain a large number of case histories. The initial chapters address field data collection, the critical aspects of determining the strength of weak rocks, the role of groundwater in weak rock slope stability and slope design considerations, which can differ somewhat from those applied to strong rock. The subsequent chapters address the principal weak rock types that are encountered in open pit mines, including cemented colluvial sediments, weak sedimentary mudstone rocks, soft coals and chalk, weak limestone, saprolite, soft iron ores and other leached rocks, and hydrothermally altered rocks. A final chapter deals with design implementation aspects, including mine planning, monitoring, surface water control and closure of weak rock slopes. As with the other books in this series, Guidelines for Open Pit Slope Design in Weak Rocks provides guidance to practitioners involved in the design and implementation of open pit slopes, particularly geotechnical engineers, mining engineers, geologists and other personnel working at operating mines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second International Symposium on Constitutive Modeling of Geomaterials: Advances and New Applications (IS-Model 2012), is to be held in Beijing, China, during October 15-16, 2012. The symposium is organized by Tsinghua University, the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (IACMAG), the Committee of Numerical and Physical Modeling of Rock Mass, Chinese Society for Rock Mechanics and Engineering, and the Committee of Constitutive Relations and Strength Theory, China Institution of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, China Civil Engineering Society. This Symposium follows the first successful International Workshop on Constitutive Modeling held in Hong Kong, which was organized by Prof. JH Yin in 2007. Constitutive modeling of geomaterials has been an active research area for a long period of time. Different approaches have been used in the development of various constitutive models. A number of models have been implemented in the numerical analyses of geotechnical structures. The objective of the symposium is to provide a forum for researchers and engineers working or interested in the area of constitutive modeling to meet together and share new ideas, achievements and experiences through presentations and discussions. Emphasis is placed on recent advances of constitutive modeling and its applications in both theoretic and experimental aspects. Six famous scholars have been invited for the plenary speeches of the symposiums. Some prominent scholars have been invited to organize four specialized workshops on hot topics, including “Time-dependent stress-strain behavior of geomaterials”, “Constitutive modeling within critical state soil mechanics”, “Multiscale and multiphysics in geomaterials”, and “Damage to failure in rock structures”. A total of 49 papers are included in the above topics. In addition, 51 papers are grouped under three topics covering “Behaviour of geomaterials”, “Constitutive model”, and “Applications”. The editors expect that the book can be helpful as a reference to all those in the field of constitutive modeling of geomaterials.

Download or read book Constitutive Modeling of Soils and Rocks written by Pierre-Yves Hicher and published by Iste Publishing Company. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soils and rocks have many physical characteristics in common: they are highly heterogenous materials with naturally grained structures. Consequently, they have specific rheological behavior such as a highly non-linear stress-strain relationship, a dependency upon the mean effective stress and deviatoric stress-induced volume changes. Given the specific nature of these materials, there is a need to develop specific constitutive models adapted to these peculiar features. This book includes contributions from a range of prominent specialists in order to provide a cutting-edge review of the field of constitutive modeling of soil and rocks including elastoplasticity, viscoplasticity, incrementally non-linear models and damage models. Attention is also devoted to experimental behavior, mainly through laboratory testing on intact soil and rock samples, as well as to the methodology of model parameter identification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analytical model discussed and formulated in this report focuses on the derivation of a constitutive model for low-porosity, crystalline rocks subjected to compressive stresses. The proposed model is inspired by micromechanical analyses of the kinked-crack mechanism. The report also discusses advantages and limitations of the proposed model listing topics requiring further research. An illustrative example indicates that the suggested methodology leads to a relatively simple and tractable model which was, nevertheless, able to replicate major trends in the deformation process of a Westerly granite specimen in uniaxial compression. AH major material parameters in the proposed analytical model are physically identifiable and experimentally measurable. Brittle response, Microcracks, Granite, Rock, Stress-strain, Kinked crack.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Subsidence of geologic surface structures due to withdrawal of fluids from aquifers and petroleum reservoirs is a phenomenon experienced throughout the world as the demand for water and hydrocarbons increases with increasing population growth. This book addresses the definition and theories of subsidence, and the influences of unique conditions on subsidence; it includes discussions of specific field cases and a basic mathematical model of reservoir compaction and accompanying loss of porosity and permeability. The book is designed as a reference for readers giving immediate access to the geological events that establish conditions for compaction, the mathematical theories of compaction and subsidence, and practical considerations of field case histories in various regions of the world.

Download or read book Numerical Model for Simulating Dynamic Processes in Rocks written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A constitutive model for porous, brittle rocks that includes both compaction and fracture is presented. The model is microphysical in that inelasticity is directly related to the mechanics of crack growth and also to the plastic collapse of spherical pores. The model is suitable for computing and has been implemented in a two-dimensional stress wave code. The paper describes a mechanical model of pore collapse, the role of effective moduli in combining the effects of the pores and the cracks in a consistent fashion, and the importance of self-consistent corrections to the moduli in the calculation of spall. 12 references, 1 figure.
