Transit development in rock mechanics. Recognition, thinking and innovation / Транзитное развитие в механике горных пород. Признание, мышление и инновации

This proceedings contain 150 papers accepted for The 3rd ISRM Young Scholars’ Symposium on Rock Mechanics, which was hold in November 8–10th, 2014, Xi’an, China. The Symposium is organized by the Commission on Education of International Society for Rock Mechanics and Xi’an University of Science and Technology, and sponsored by International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM) and Chinese Society for Rock Mechanics and Engineering (CSRME).

The ISRM Young Scholars’ Symposium on Rock Mechanics is a series event that was initially proposed by the Commission on Education of ISRM and started through April 28–May 1, 2008. The aims of the Symposium are at providing an ideal platform for exchanging ideas and information, sharing knowledge and experience between young scholars. Through the past two Symposiums, the young researchers acquired fruitful knowledge and information in theoretic advancement and analytic improvement associated with new techniques and new engineering practice. The Symposium stimulates and encourages the Young Scholars so much that they will tackle our understanding rock mechanics and rock engineering problems with renewed vigor. <...>
