Influence of the Number of Parallel-Joints on Size Effect of Elastic Modulus and Characteristic Elastic Modulus

The number of joints existing in the rock affects the elastic modulus of the rock, and the relationship has not been obtained. In this paper, 10 numerical models are established by numerical simulations to study the effect of the number of parallel joints on the size effect of rock elastic modulus....
