Shear sliding of rough-walled fracture surfaces under unloading normal stress

Through high-precision engraving, self-affine sandstone joint surfaces with various joint roughness coefficients (JRC = 3.21–12.16) were replicated and the shear sliding tests under unloading normal stress were conducted regarding various initial normal stresses (1–7 MPa) and numbers of shearing cyc...
