Three-Dimensional Geostatistical Analysis of Rock Fracture Roughness and Its Degradation with Shearing

Three-dimensional surface geometry of rock discontinuities and its evolution with shearing are of great importance in understanding the deformability and hydro-mechanical behavior of rock masses. In the present research, surfaces of three natural rock fractures were digitized and studied before and...
