Foreword
Fractures in natural rocks have a marked effect on the stability and safety of rock mass. In rock engineering practice, it is often necessary to evaluate strength failure and crack evolution behaviour. Until now, the problem of coming to terms with these features of fissured rock material has had no satisfactory solution, because of the complex role of fissure geometry and confining pressure. But using advanced acoustic emission and photographic monitoring techniques, the author of this book has carried out many valuable experimental investigations to fill the knowledge gap.
