An Enhanced Ubiquitous-Joint Model for a Rock Mass With Conjugate Joints and Its Application on Excavation Simulation of Large Underground Caverns
A conjugate jointed rock mass (CJRM) is a rock mass with two sets of intersecting joints formed from intact rock under shear. Its mechanical properties and excavation-induced hazards of large underground caverns are different from those of common rock masses because of the unique geological origin t...
