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
Where closely jointed rock masses are encountered in slopes, failure can occur both through the rock mass, as a result of combination of macro and micro jointing, and through the rock substance. Determination of the strength of this category of rock mass is extraordinarily dicult since the size of r
