Variation of Failure Mechanisms of Slopes in Jointed Rock Masses with Changing Scale
This paper demonstrates the ability of Shear Strength Reduction (SSR) analysis based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) to model the scale effects of discontinuity networks on the stability and failure mechanisms of slopes in blocky rock masses. Through three examples, it shows how these mechanisms depend on joint network geometry and change with increasing slope height. Introduction Scale Effe...
متن کاملA new approach for assessing stability of rock slopes considering centroids of weak zones
The intersection lines between discontinuity surfaces and their intersection points on the visible surfaces of any engineering structure may be the instability indicators. This paper describes a new approach to modelling the intersecting lines and points that would provide the first evaluation of any instability in an engineering structure characterized by the failure modes. In this work, the i...
متن کاملStability of rock slopes in Valles Marineris, Mars
[1] New slope measurements from the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA), in conjunction with the Rock Mass Rating system (RMR), permit inversions of slope height and angle from wallrock and interior deposits within Valles Marineris troughs for strength and lithology. Wallrock (50 < RMR < 65) is stronger than interior deposits (30 < RMR < 55). These values are consistent with layered igneous roc...
متن کاملApplication of Cosserat Continuum Approach in the Finite Element Shear Strength Reduction Analysis of Jointed Rock Slopes
This paper focuses on the application of a continuum-based method in the Shear Strength Reduction (SSR) analysis of the stability of jointed rock slopes. In order to take into account the jointed nature of the material, the Finite Element Method (FEM) is formulated based on Cosserat theory. Also, it is assumed that failure of the equivalent material can result from failure of the joints, failur...
متن کاملMicroplane damage model for jointed rock masses
The paper presents a new microplane constitutive model for the inelastic behavior of jointed rock masses that takes into account the mechanical behavior and geometric characteristics of cracks and joints. The basic idea is that the microplane modeling of rock masses under general triaxial loading, including compression, requires the isotropic rock matrix and the joints to be considered as two d...
