Translating slip condition for a jointed rock mass

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:59461

The effect of joint block interlocking on the stress-strain behavior of a jointed rock specimen was investigated. A translating slip condition was found to be an accurate description of the data. Linear hardening and spontaneous reverse slip are found to be phenomena characteristic of jointed rock subjected to stress cycles.
