Complex Networks on a Rock Joint
, 2009 A complex network approach on a rough fracture is developed. In this manner, some hidden metric spaces (similarity measurements) between apertures profiles are set up and a general evolutionary network in two directions (in parallel and perpendicular to the shear direction) is constructed.

Evaluation of maximum rockfall dimensions based on probabilistic assessment of the penetration of the sliding planes into the slope [PDF]
, 2020 There is intrinsic difficulty in the investigation of the largest volume of rockfalls that is expected in an area, which lies in the small number of large events, in registrable times.

Stress effect & scale effect on shear properties of double saw-tooth rock joint surface
Applied Rheology, 2021 The shear properties of rock joint control the stability of rock and have an important impact on natural disasters such as landslides and debris flow. In order to study the stress effect and scale effect of shear properties of double saw-tooth rock joint,

Comparing rockfall scar volumes and kinematically detachable rock masses [PDF]
, 2017 Scenario-based risk assessment for rockfalls, requires assumptions for different scenarios of magnitude (volume). The magnitude of such instabilities is related to the properties of the jointed rock mass, with the characteristics of the existing ...

Criteria for rapid sliding II.: thermo-hydro-mechanical and scale effects in Vaiont case [PDF]
, 2010 Thermally induced excess pore pressures have been included into a two-wedge evolutive model of Vaiont landslide. The problem requires the solution of a system of four coupled balance equations for the shear bands and the surrounding rock as well as the ...

Effects of joint orientation in tunneling [PDF]
, 2014 This research is focused on the effects of joint orientation with respect to the direction of tunnel axis. It is expected that the stability of surrounding rock is affected by the strike and dip of the joints and the direction of the tunnel axis ...
