Research on Fracture and Energy Evolution of Rock Containing Natural Fractures under Cyclic Loading Condition by Xueliang Li, Yu Wang, Shuo Xu, Haonan Yang, Bo Li

“…For rock engineering in cold regions, the naturally fractured rock is susceptible to repeated freeze-thaw (F-T) weathering, coupled fatigue conditions of freeze-thaw (F-T), and stress disturbance act on rock mass, which can lead to the instability of rock engineering and even occurrence of geological hazards. Knowledge of how natural fracture affects the overall fracture evolution of freeze-thawed rock is crucial to rock mass stability. …”

Experimental Studies on the Changes in Resistivity and Its Anisotropy Using Electrical Resistivity Tomography by Tao Zhu, Jian-Guo Zhou, Jin-Qi Hao

“…Our results show that with increasing pressure, resistivity and the decreased (D region) and increased (I region) resistivity regions have complex behaviors, but when pressure is higher than a certain value, the average resistivity decrease and the area of D region expand gradually in all time with the increase of pressure, which may be significant to the monitoring and prediction of earthquake, volcanic activities, and large-scale geologic motions. The effects of pressure on λ∗ and α are not very outstanding for dry magnetite samples.…”
