The analysis of crack problems through fracture mechanics has been applied to the study of materials such as glass, metals and ceramics because relatively simpl

Porous Rock Failure Mechanics: Hydraulic Fracturing, Drilling and Structural Engineering focuses on the fracture mechanics of porous rocks and modern simulation

Introduction to geologic fracture mechanics covering geologic structural discontinuities from theoretical and field-based perspectives.

Rock fractures control many of Earth's dynamic processes, including plate-boundary development, tectonic earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and fluid transport in

This text book provides the theoretical background of rock fracture mechanics and displacement discontinuity methods used for the modelling of geomechanical pro
