Experimental and PFC2D numerical study of progressive shear behaviour of single rough rock fractures

Experimental and PFC2D numerical study of progressive shear behaviour of single rough rock fractures

This thesis investigates the progressive shear behaviour and asperity degradation of single rough rock fractures using 2D numerical simulations and laboratory experiments.The particle flow code (PFC) was chosen for simulation purposes in this work. The fracture and intact sample are modelled as an a...
