A Novel Discontinuity Roughness Parameter and Its Correlation with Joint Roughness Coefficients

Joint roughness determination is a fundamental issue in many areas of rock engineering, because joint roughness has significant influences on mechanical properties and deformation behavior of rock masses. Available models suggested in the literature neglected combined effects of shear direction, sca...
