近十余年来,断裂力学的理论与方法被引入岩石力学领域中来了。据了解,某些国家高等学校的岩石力学教学大纲中,也包括岩石断裂力学的内容。在我国,也开始了岩石断裂力学的研究,并有将其成果初步运用于水工设计之中的。但是,对于断裂力学在岩石这样的节理繁多的裂隙介质中应用的可能性,不少人仍然有所怀疑。本文就这个问题谈一点看法,供讨论。 For more than a decade, theories and methods of fracture mechanics have been introduced into the field of rock mechanics. It is understood that the syllabuses of rock mechanics in institutions of higher learning in certain countries also include the contents of rock fracture mechanics. In China, the research of rock fracture mechanics has also begun, and its results have been applied to hydraulic design. However, many people still have doubts about the possibility of the application of fracture mechanics in rocky joints with numerous fractured media. This article talks about this issue for discussion.
