Mechanics of Jointed and Faulted Rock

This text presents the proceedings of the second international conference on the mechanics of jointed and faulted rock masses. Special emphasis was placed on the implementation of theoretical findings in practical applications. Further topics covered include: solids with cracks; joint shear behaviour; constitutive behaviour; geology and structural geology; faults and faulting; joint hydraulics and hydro-fracturing; testing; numerical modelling; slope stability; rock dynamics; underground openings; and rock bolting.
