Scale Dependence of Waviness and Unevenness of Natural Rock Joints through Fractal Analysis

The scale dependence of surface roughness is critical in characterising the hydromechanical properties of field-scale rock joints but is still not well understood, particularly when different orders of roughness are considered. We experimentally reveal the scale dependence of two-order roughness, i....
