Damage constitutive model of jointed rock mass considering structural features and load effect
Rock masses in underground engineering are usually damaged, which are caused by rock genesis and environmental stress. Studying the constitutive relationship between rock strength and deformation under loading is crucial for the design and evaluation of ...

Uncertainty in Rock Mass Jointing Characterisation [PDF]
The analysis of jointing in a rock mass is a critical step in any rock engineering project as the extent of fracturing in the rock mass is the dominant factor controlling the rock mass strength. Uncertainties in the characterisation of a rock mass are very rarely considered.

On the strength and failure mechanism of confined pre-holed jointed rock mass via DIC
As the development of deep underground engineering in modern days (i.e., exploitation of geo-energy and underground constructions), a higher demand arises for an accurate prediction of ground deformation and stability.

Numerical model for jointed rock mass in particle flow code and its application
To simulate the joint network around mining tunnels and to conduct the stability analysis of tunnels in jointed rock mass, a numerical model for jointed rock mass containing particle flow block model, original joint network and secondary joint network is
