Shear characteristics and shear strength model of rock mass structural planes

Abstract Accurately determining the shear strength of structural planes is crucial for evaluating the stability of rock masses. The shear test using the sawtooth structural plane usually captures the main influencing factors of its shear characteristics. In this study, the two-dimensional particle f...
