Shear velocity-based uncertainty quantification for rock joint shear strength [PDF]
Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment, 2019 The shear strength of rock joints is an important property required in order to analyze the stability of rock slopes and tunnels. However, estimation of the shear strength of rock joints for in situ conditions is a complex task due to various influencing factors present in the field.
