Joint Elasticity Effect on the Failure Behaviours of Rock Masses using a Discrete Element Model
It is widely accepted that the mechanical properties and failure behaviours of a rock mass are largely dependent upon the geometrical and mechanical properties of discontinuities. The effect of joint elasticity on the failure behaviours of rock masses is investigated using a discrete element model,...
