Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering: From the Past to the Future

A comprehensive exploration of rock mechanics and engineering, 'Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering: From the Past to the Future' presents groundbreaking insights from EUROCK2016, an international symposium held in Cappadocia, Turkey. This collection of 204 accepted papers and eight keynote addresses delves into diverse aspects of rock mechanics, emphasizing future directions in engineering technologies. The contributions span fundamental theories to practical applications, including stability analysis, design methodologies, and the preservation of historical sites like Göreme National Park. Advanced analytical and numerical methods are highlighted, alongside innovative approaches for underground excavations, waste disposal, and carbon dioxide sequestration. The symposium, organized by the Turkish National Society for Rock Mechanics, continues a distinguished European series, offering valuable insights for researchers and professionals in rock mechanics and engineering.
