Slope stability assessment of an open pit using lattice-spring-based synthetic rock mass (LS-SRM) modeling approach
Discontinuity waviness is one of the most important properties that influence shear strength of jointed rock masses, and it should be incorporated into numerical models for slope stability assessment. However, in most existing numerical modeling tools, discontinuities are often simplified into plana...
