Laboratory-Scale Investigation on Shear Behavior of Non-Persistent Joints and Joint Infill Using Lattice-Spring-Based Synthetic Rock Mass Model

Laboratory-Scale Investigation on Shear Behavior of Non-Persistent Joints and Joint Infill Using Lattice-Spring-Based Synthetic Rock Mass Model

Discontinuities mainly control the mechanical behavior of rock mass and cause a significant reduction in the rock mass strength. Joint persistency and joint infill conditions are considered the most significant joint parameters that control the mechanical response of rock mass. In this study, numeri...
