Effect of Joint Roughness and Infill Thickness on Shear Characteristics of Rock Mass

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
The joint planes in fractured rock mass will reduce the tensile strength and shear strength of rock mass, which has a decisive influence on the deformation and failure mode of engineering rock mass.

Unified Friction Formulation from Laminar to Fully Rough Turbulent Flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper provides a new unified formula for Newtonian fluids valid for all pipe flow regimes from laminar to fully rough turbulent flow. This includes laminar flow; the unstable sharp jump from laminar to turbulent flow; and all types of turbulent ...

Determination of Joint Surface Roughness Based on 3D Statistical Morphology Characteristic

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Roughness significantly affects the shear behavior of rock joints, which are widely encountered in geotechnical engineering. Since the existing calculation methods on the joint roughness coefficient (JRC) fail to obtain a sufficiently accurate value of ...

The Influence of Different Shear Directions on the Shear Resistance Characteristics of Rock Joints

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
The joint roughness coefficient JRC of rock joints is an important parameter for measuring the geometric morphology of rock joints. However, the parameter obtained from traditional calculation methods has certain limitations in reflecting the differences

Rational approximation for solving an implicitly given Colebrook flow friction equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The empirical logarithmic Colebrook equation for hydraulic resistance in pipes implicitly considers the unknown flow friction factor. Its explicit approximations, used to avoid iterative computations, should be accurate but also computationally efficient.

Rock mass characterization coupled with seismic noise measurements to analyze the unstable cliff slope of the Selmun Promontory (Malta) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the Mediterranean area, cliff slopes represent widespread high-risk landforms as they are highly frequented touristic places often interested by landslide processes.

Uncertainty quantification based on symbolic regression and probabilistic programming and its application

open access: yesMachine Learning with Applications
The joint roughness coefficient (JRC) is critical to evaluate the strength and deformation behavior of joint rock mass in rock engineering. Various methods have been developed to estimate JRC value based on the statistical parameter of rock joints.

A New Characterization Method for Rock Joint Roughness Considering the Mechanical Contribution of Each Asperity Order

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The morphology of the joint surface is multi-scale, and it can be divided into first-order asperity (waviness) and second-order asperity (unevenness). At present, the joint roughness characterization formula considers only the morphology contribution of ...
