The dynamic behaviour of rocks during the failure process is not being investigated so far, although it has very
important implications on the failure response of rock engineering structures as well as ground motions induced by
earthquakes.The author performed some experiments under different loading environment with testing machines of three
different institutes on various types geo-materials in order to enhance our knowledge and understanding on the dynamic
behaviour of rocks during fracturing.Following some brief information on the testing machines and testing procedures,the
experimental results are presented according to each testing environment and their implications are discussed. |
