Abstract: A coupled model of freezing–thawing of saturated porous materials, such as soils and rocks, is presented. The formulation is based on fundamental laws of continuum mechanics, i.e., conservation of mass, momentum, energy, ...

Abstract: Herein, a methodology is presented for the calibration of the triaxial hyperbolic Mohr-Coulomb (HMC) elastoplastic model on a set of experimental data of conventional rock mechanics tests on intact rocks. It is demonstrated ...
