Experimental and Numerical Study of the Uniaxial Compressive Stress-Strain Relationship of a Rock Mass with Two Parallel Joints
A “rock bridge”, defined as the closest distance between two joints in a rock mass, is an important feature affecting the jointed rock mass strength. Artificial jointed rock specimens with two parallel joint fractures were tested under uniaxial compression and numerical simulations were carried out...
