A Study on the Normal Transmission of a One-Dimensional P-Wave across a Single Nonlinear Joint in a Rockmass

The presence of nonlinear discontinuities in a rockmass makes the stress wave propagation rules in a continuous medium not applicable. In an attempt to reveal the transmission laws of a one-dimensional P-wave across a single nonlinear joint in a rockmass, a recurrence equation is deduced using a sem...
