Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental study on the progressive shear behavior of rock joints with tooth-shaped asperities
Zon-Yee Yang,D.Y Chiang +1 more
TL;DR: Yang et al. as discussed by the authors showed that the shear stress-displacement curve of a rock joint is made up of many sizes of asperities, such that the resultant curve is more or less a summation of many basic curves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of joint sets on the strength and deformation of rock mass models
TL;DR: In this article, a series of physical model tests for jointed rock masses with several superimposed joint sets is described, performed to investigate the interaction between different joint sets and investigate the interactions between different sets.

Journal ArticleDOI
A Discrete Element Model for Predicting Shear Strength and Degradation of Rock Joint by Using Compressive and Tensile Test Data
TL;DR: In this paper, a discrete element model is proposed to examine rock strength and failure, where the material is represented as a collection of irregular-sized deformable particles interacting at their cohesive boundaries.
