Strength and failure characteristics of brittle jointed rock-like specimens under uniaxial compression: Digital speckle technology and a particle mechanics approach

The strength and failure characteristics of most natural rock mass are influenced by discontinues such as fissures, joints, and weak surfaces. In the present study, the strength and failure behavior of ubiquitous-joint rock-like specimens under uniaxial loading have been investigated by DIC (digital...
