Scale effect of the rock joint
TL;DR: This study presents a rock joint constitutive model that represents the behavior of both a small-scale joint in the laboratory and a large-scale Joint in the field, and can be incorporated into discrete element computer codes using a program language in order to solve boundary value problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Critical shear strain and sliding potential of rock joint under cyclic loading
TL;DR: In this article , a new concept of critical shear strain ε τ critical of rock joint under cyclic loading is presented, and the role of ετ critical in evaluating the sliding potential of rock joints is highlighted.

Generation of a 3D Artificial Joint Surface and Characterization of Its Roughness
TL;DR: In this paper, a reliable technique to generate a rough joint surface was introduced and its quantitative assessment was made, where a random midpoint displacement method was applied to generate the joint surface and the distribution of the roughness was investigated to assess its roughness.

Evaluation method of local failure characteristics for joint based on white light scanning technology
TL;DR: In this paper , a 3D description method of joint local failure characteristics is proposed, which can determine the scope of surface failure of joint, quantitatively analyze the locality of its failure characteristics, provide data support for distinguishing the types of shear failure and offer theoretical basis for further research on shear mechanism.
