Modified minimum principal stress estimation formula based on Hoek–Brown criterion and equivalent Mohr–Coulomb strength parameters
Abstract The most critical parameter for determining equivalent values for the Mohr–Coulomb friction angle and cohesion from the nonlinear Hoek–Brown criterion is the upper limit of confining stress. For rock slopes, this value is the maximum value of the minimum principal stress ( $$\sigma_{3,\max...
