Chemical corrosion of rock masses commonly exists in natural environment (e.g., rock masses immersed in acidic groundwater) and in rock engineering practice (e.g., acid fluid injection in unconventional reservoirs). Rock fractures as the primary paths for fluid flow are susceptible to the chemical t...
