Influence of joint characteristics on rock fragmentation induced by TBM disc cutter

Published: Jan 1, 2013
Abstract
In order to study the effects of joint characteristics on rock fragmentation modes, from the meso-level structure of rock mass, the jointed rock indentation by a single TBM disc cutter was simulated by using the particle discrete element method, and rock fragmentation process was highlighted. A series of two-dimensional numerical modeling in jointed rock mass were performed to explore the influence of joint strength, spacing and orientation on...
