A Model for the Mechanics of Jointed Rock
TL;DR: In this article, a linkage type element is developed for adding rock joint stiffness to the structural stiffness matrix describing the behavior of a system of rock blocks and joints and a new classification of joints is introduced, based on the application of the joint element to finite element analysis of structures in jointed rock.

Closure on a model for the mechanics of jointed rock
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a mathematical model for the formation of a team of joined rocks, based on the idea that a particULAR JOINT was assumed to OCCUR at a given location.
