In the underhand cut-and-fill mining method,a sill mat(i.e.an artificial horizontal pillar)constructed by cemented backfill is essential to prevent mine workers from being directly exposed under problematic rock roofs...

Underhand cut-and-fill mining has been widely used in underground mining operations,especially when the rock mass or orebody is of poor quality or prone to rockburst due to high stress.In such cases,mining workers sho...

The problem of shield tunnel uplift is a common issue in tunnel construction.Due to the decrease in shear stiffness at the joints between the rings,uplift is typically observed as bending and dislocation deformation a...
This paper presents a new analytical solution for assessing the longitudinal deformation of shield tunnel associated with overcrossing tunnelling in consideration of circumferential joints.A simplified longitudinal be...
This paper investigates the validity and shortcomings of the existing analytical solution for the ultimate bearing capacity of a pile embedded in a rock mass using the modified HoekeBrown failure criterion.Although th...

Recently,Zou et al.(2020 a)published a theoretical analysis on the radial flow of a Bingham fluid,where they argued that the classical analysis by Dai and Bird(1981)violates the mass conservation.The present discussio...
Evaluation of blocky or layered rock slopes against toppling failures has remained of great concern for engineers in various rock mechanics projects.Several step-by-step analytical solutions have been developed for an...
