Analytical Model of Seepage Pressure Effect on Dynamic Compressive Fractures Caused by Microcrack Growth in Brittle Rocks

The dynamic compression fracture of brittle rock under seepage pressure is a critical issue for deep underground engineering. It directly influences the stability and safety of the surrounding rock during blasting or seismic loading. However, research on the mechanisms of microcrack evolution under these coupled co...

Numerical Simulation Study of the Permeability Evolution of Sandstone during the Loading and Failure Process Based on FDEM

Rock failure under hydromechanical coupling is a complex process that has attracted considerable attention in deep underground engineering. In this study, a hydraulic coupling analysis method for rock loading and failure is developed based on the finite–discrete-element method (FDEM) combined with the grain-based mod...

Dynamic Progressive Failure and Energy-Driven Damage Evolution of Coal–Sandstone Composite Specimens Under Impact Loading: Coupling Effects of Component Ratio

Overburden rotation and mining disturbance promote deep coal fracture and spalling, potentially inducing dynamic hazards, while the coal–rock thickness ratio largely governs the composite’s dynamic response and failure severity. Based on the geological conditions of a typical deep coal mine, SHPB tests were performed o...

Mechanical and hydraulic properties of fractured Bentheim sandstone at different laboratory-simulated depths

Understanding how rock properties change with depth is crucial for a variety of geoengineering applications. Even rocks that are homogenous at both micro and macro scales, such as Bentheim sandstone, lose this characteristic once fractured. While recent studies have shown how concomitant changes in stress, temperature...

Fracture Propagation Characteristics and Influencing Factors in Cross-Layer Fracturing of Interlayered Shale Reservoirs

Hydraulic-fracture transmission across lithologic interfaces governs fracture-height growth and reservoir connectivity in shale–sandstone interbedded reservoirs, yet the coupled effects of mechanical contrast, interface properties, layer geometry, and operational parameters remain insufficiently quantified. A two-dimen...
