2. Bonded Particle Model for Jointed Rock Mass
Abstract : Jointed rock masses are formed of intact rock and joints. There-fore, proper characterization of rock mass behavior has to consid-er the combined behavior of the intact rock blocks and that of the joints. This thesis presents the theoretical background of the Synthetic Rock Mass (SRM) modeling technique along with example applica-tions. READ MORE

3. Analytical and numerical approaches to estimate peak shear strength of rock joints
Abstract : In Sweden, there exists a large number of dams. Many of them are founded on rock masses normally affected by the presence of sub-horizontal rock fractures, which makes sliding along rock joints under the dam foundation one of the most critical failure mechanism. READ MORE

4. Peak Shear Strength of Rock Joints – Towards a Methodology for Prediction Based on Field Data
Abstract : The rock joint shear strength at field scale is an important design parameter and remains a challenge for rock mechanics engineers. In Sweden, there exist a large number of concrete dams that are founded on rock masses which in many cases contain sub-horizontal rock joints. READ MORE
