Zhang Ke. Failure Mechanism and Stability Analysis of Rock Slope: New Insight and Methods

Springer, 2020. — 263p. — ISBN: 981155742X.This book presents in-depth coverage of laboratory experiments, theories, modeling techniques, and practices for the analysis and design of rock slopes in complex geological settings. It addresses new concepts in connection with the kinematical element method, discontinuity kinematical element method, integrated karst cave stochastic model-limit equilibrium method, improved strength reduction method, and fracture mechanics method, taking into account the relevant geological features.Influence of Flaw Inclination on Shear Fracturing and Fractal Behavior
