A hardening load transfer function for rock bolts and its calibration using distributed fiber optic sensing

Confinement of rock bolts by the surrounding rock formation has long been recognized as a positive contributor to the pull-out behavior, yet only a few experimental works and analytical models have been reported, most of which are based on the global rock bolt response evaluated in pull-out tests. T...
