Analysis of the effect of joint roughness on the failure mechanism of jointed rock mass under direct shear loading.

The mechanical properties of jointed rock bodies are important in guiding engineering design and construction. Using the particle flow software PFC2D, we conducted direct shear test simulations on joints with various inclinations and five different roughness levels to examine the models' crack...
