Assessing cohesion of the rocks proposing a new intelligent technique namely group method of data handling

In this study, evaluation and prediction of rock cohesion is assessed using multiple regression as well as group method of data handling (GMDH). It is a well-known fact that cohesion is the most crucial rock shear strength parameter, which is a key parameter for the stability evaluation of some geot...
