“…The seventh paper, written by J. Zhang, Y. Wang, B. Yao, D. Chen, C. Sun, and B. Jia [7], analyzed the peak strain-softening properties of rock mass based on the equivalent joint strain-softening theories. In the eighth paper, C. Huang, X. Li, and M. Wen [8] proposed a modified double-K fracture criterion and created an XFEM-FCM algorithm to carry out the fracture process of concrete linings. G. Wang, Q. Fang, J.…”
