In the 1970s, the service offering expanded to include rock mechanics.
The general method was originally developed by Cundall in 1971 to problems in rock mechanics.
From 1965 he was at Imperial College, where he set up at the Royal School of Mines one faculty-wide center for rock mechanics.
Most engineering geologists also have graduate degrees where they have gained specialized education and training in soil mechanics, rock mechanics, geotechnics, groundwater, hydrology, and civil design.
Get me the rock mechanic's lab, honey, and snap it up, please.
He knew that Peter Wessels was the only person who could read the mass of complicated electronic equipment that filled the instrument room of the rock mechanic's laboratory.
The Hoek-Brown failure criterion is an empirical stress surface that is used in rock mechanics to predict the failure of rock.
The two main disciplines of geomechanics are soil mechanics and rock mechanics.
The focus of this journal is original research, site measurements, and case studies in rock mechanics and rock engineering pertaining to mining and civil engineering.
He was also employed by Mobil Exploration for several years as a research engineer in the areas of rock mechanics, structural geology, and well performance.
