Applied Rock Mechanics and Ground Stability is a textbook intended for engineering students. It may also be used by practical engineers as a quick reference on methodologies and design principles. It is meant to be simple and easy to use, to help students who have little practical experience understand the concepts.The author attempts to balance fundamental knowledge and practical applications. Examples are provided after introduction of concepts or methods to demonstrate their applications. The second edition has taken all suggestions from the previous version into consideration. A new chapter on application of numerical modelling in mining and geomechanics is also added as a brief introduction.
