Surface and Underground Projects is the last volume of the
five-volume set Rock Mechanics and Engineering and contains
twenty-one chapters from key experts in the following fields: -
Slopes; - Tunnels and Caverns; - Mining; - Petroleum Engineering; -
Thermo-/Hydro-Mechanics in Gas Storage, Loading and Radioactive
Waste Disposal. The five-volume set "Comprehensive Rock
Engineering", which was published in 1993, has had an important
influence on the development of rock mechanics and rock
engineering. Significant and extensive advances and achievements in
these fields over the last 20 years now justify the publishing of a
comparable, new compilation. Rock Mechanics and Engineering
represents a highly prestigious, multi-volume work edited by
Professor Xia-Ting Feng, with the editorial advice of Professor
John A. Hudson. This new compilation offers an extremely
wideranging and comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in
rock mechanics and rock engineering and is composed of
peer-reviewed, dedicated contributions by all the key experts
worldwide. Key features of this set are that it provides a
systematic, global summary of new developments in rock mechanics
and rock engineering practices as well as looking ahead to future
developments in the fields. Contributors are worldrenowned experts
in the fields of rock mechanics and rock engineering, though
younger, talented researchers have also been included. The
individual volumes cover an extremely wide array of topics grouped
under five overarching themes: Principles (Vol. 1), Laboratory and
Field Testing (Vol. 2), Analysis, Modelling and Design (Vol. 3),
Excavation, Support and Monitoring (Vol. 4) and Surface and
Underground Projects (Vol. 5). This multi-volume work sets a new
standard for rock mechanics and engineering compendia and will be
the go-to resource for all engineering professionals and academics
involved in rock mechanics and engineering for years to come.
