3D particle-based DEM investigation into the shear behaviour of incipient rock joints with various geometries of rock bridges

A 3D particle-based DEM model was established taking into account the geometries of rock bridges. The model was used to investigate the shear behaviour of incipient rock joints. Fifty-seven direct shear tests were conducted under constant normal load (CNL) boundary conditions using the established m...
