In recent decades, the design and construction of geotechnical engineering projects, including mines, tunnels, hydropower stations, and nuclear waste repositories, have increased in scale, and this trend is expected to continue in the future. These large-scale engineering projects are closely related to geomaterials (such as rock and soil) and geomechanics. When rock engineering enters increasingly deep exploitations, two critical scientific problems pose a serious threat to people's lives and property, the construction efficiency of projects, and the ecological environment. Geological disasters, including rockbursts, landslides, and slabbing, frequently occur during the construction and operation of rock projects as the geostress increases. Scientists aim to prevent the instability and breakage of the surrounding rock. Meanwhile, researchers and workers seek to break hard rock efficiently in the excavation process. Therefore, the investigation and better understanding of the mechanical and fracture behavior of deep rocks is of key importance to the scientific design and safe operation of deep rock engineering projects. This topic is dedicated as a specific platform for all geomechanics research. This topic can serve as the missing link between applied and fundamental research journals.
