A Fractal and Numerical Simulation Coupled Study of Fracture Network during Coal Mining Excavation

This paper features a numerical study that is carried out by using discontinuous deformation method (DDA) and fractal geometry. The configurations of rock strata calculated by DDA were imported into a code that is written by using VC++ called “Fractal” to calculate the fractal dimension of the rock...
