An extensive program was conducted to develop and validate computer models for the deformation of structures in jointed rock. Both discrete element and "nite element models were investigated. The program comprised a sequence of seven calculational and experimental studies. In the "nal step, model pr
An equivalent continuum model of rock mass consisting of joints and rock is proposed by averaging the stress and strain in a volume element. Using the theory of damage mechanics and fracture mechanics, the damage tensor, effective stress tensor, damage strain, etc. of the rock mass are defined, prop
