Numerical simulation of the cutting of inhomogeneous rocks

• In this study, the possible modes of crack initiation and propagation leading to chip formation in rock cutting are studied numerically by using a rock failure process analysis code referred to as RFPA. By using this approach, additional information is obtained on the tool-rock interaction and the failure mechanisms of rock under mechanical tools.
