RESEARCH CENTRE

Research that can be inspected, challenged and reproduced.

Follow the source, implemented scope, assumptions and verification status behind the public Rocklytics workflow.

Source first

Start from the primary publication. Where none exists, say so.

Scope attached

Keep geometry, material assumptions and use boundaries beside every result.

Reproducible evidence

Use synthetic examples and regression checks that can be repeated as the software changes.

PUBLISHED FOUNDATION

One public workflow with a traceable source.

This publication documents the analytical tunnel workflow. It does not certify every Rocklytics module or a project-specific design.

Published work

A Computational Approach to Preliminary Tunnel Design: Integrating Kirsch Equations and the Generalized Hoek-Brown Criterion

Preliminary elastic assessment of circular tunnel openings using Kirsch and generalized Hoek-Brown methods.

DOI 10.3390/app16052347

REPRODUCIBILITY PATH

From publication to a reviewable software case.

  1. 01

    Read the source

    Inspect the paper and the stated analytical assumptions.

  2. 02

    Review the implementation boundary

    Identify which equations, units and outputs are represented in software.

  3. 03

    Repeat a synthetic case

    Compare a controlled input set and intermediate values.

  4. 04

    Challenge applicability

    A qualified engineer decides whether the method fits the actual question.

COLLABORATION QUESTIONS

Useful work starts with a testable question.

  • Reference cases and independent numerical checks
  • Reproducible analytical and empirical workflows
  • Transparent unit, assumption and uncertainty handling
  • Human review of preliminary engineering software
  • Reference blast design, fragmentation and vibration screening cases in mineraX
