    Experimental and Numerical Study of Joint Persistence Effect on the Non-persistent Jointed Rock Mass’ Tension Failure Behavior

    Tension failure is a common failure mode for jointed rock mass, with the rock bridge as the main body subjected to the tensile load. To reveal the jointed rock mass stability, the influence of joint persistenc...
