Static and dynamic behaviour of joints in schistose rock: lab testing and numerical simulation
The shear behaviour of rough rock joints was investigated by both laboratory testing and numerical simulation. The most powerful servo-controlled direct shear box apparatus in the world with normal forces up to 1000 kN, shear loading up to 800 kN and frequencies up to 40 Hz under full load was used to investigate the shear strength of schistose rock blocks with dimensions of up to 350 x 200 x 160 mm in length, width and height, respectively. The experiments were performed to study the behaviour of rough rock joints under constant normal load, constant normal stiffness and dynamic boundary conditions. The joint surface of rock specimen was scanned 3-dimensional at the initial stage before shearing by new 3D optical-scanning equipment. The 3D-scanner data were used to estimate the joint roughness coefficient (JRC) and to reconstruct rough surface of rock discontinuities in numerical models. Three dimensional numerical models were developed using FLAC3D to study the macro and micromechanical shear behaviour of the joints. Numerical simulation results were compared to experimental results. Three dimensional characteristic of the joint surface including micro-slope angle, aperture, contact area and normal stress distribution were determined and analyzed.
