Numerical Analysis of the Mechanical Behaviors of Various Jointed Rocks under Uniaxial Tension Loading

In a complex stress field of underground mining or geotechnical practice, tension damage/failure in rock masses is easily triggered and dominant. Unlike metals, rocks are generally bi-modularity materials with different mechanical properties (Young’s modulus, etc.) in compression and tensi...
