Excerpt

Understanding the fracture influence on the P-wave velocity and physical–mechanical properties of brittle rocks is very useful for geotechnical characterization in a number of engineering problems, e.g., slope stability, dam foundations, underground excavations, geothermal reservoirs, oil recovery, and nuclear waste disposal. After long-term geological evolutions and complicated conformations over millions of years, rocks have been submitted to accumulated stresses and there are various discontinuities at different scales, from meso- and microcracks to large faults and folds (Xie et al. 2011), affecting the rock mass behavior. Therefore, rock mass characterization is fundamental for a good assessment of its engineering properties. Moreover, the characterization of the intact rock, through laboratory tests on rock specimens (elementary volume), can play a significant role for a careful characterization of the rock type. Several authors (Han et al. 1986; Gaviglio 1989; Shon 1998; Yasar and Erdogan 2004) have tried to devise mathematical relationships between the rock properties. Nevertheless, the proposed equations are specific for the studied rock formations, since geodynamic and tectonic history impacts strongly on the intrinsic features of a rock. …
