Method of calculating shear strength of rock mass joint surface considering cyclic shear degradation
Abstract When a rock mass shears along a joint surface, the shear resistance is affected by joint surface undulations and friction between the contact regions. During an earthquake, the seismic load causes dynamic deterioration of the joint surface mechanical properties, mostly reflected as follows....
