Water-induced variations in mechanical properties of clay-bearing rocks
TL;DR: In this paper, the results obtained from laboratory tests carried out on different types of clay-bearing rock collected from various parts of Turkey, to quantify the effects of water content on mechanical properties of the rocks, and to develop a method for estimating the rock strength and deformability at any water content based on physical properties.

Estimation of rock physicomechanical properties using hardness methods
Ergül Yaşar,Yasin Erdoğan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the statistical relationship between hardness value and physicomechanical properties of constructional and cover rocks was investigated, and high correlations were found between the hardness methods (Shore Scleroscope, Schmidt hammer hardness), which are cheap and easy to use, and other physical and mechanical properties.

Prediction of uniaxial compressive strength of granitic rocks by various nonlinear tools and comparison of their performances
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed some prediction models for the UCS of six different granitic rocks selected from Turkey and used them for preliminary stages of rock engineering assessments. And the results show that the models developed can be used as preliminary stages for rock engineering assessment because they have high prediction performances.
