Effect of Varying Normal Stiffness on Soft Rock Joints under Cyclic Shear Loads
The evaluation of changes in shear resistance on soft (or weathered) rock joints under cyclic shear loads with constant normal load (CNL) and constant normal stiffness (CNS) significantly contributes to increasing the safety and stability of rock slopes and underground structures. In this study, a s...
