Abstract: The mechanical and hydraulic properties of rock discontinuity are anisotropic, and the main reason resides in the anisotropy of surface morphology. This study delved systematically into the anisotropic characteristics of ...

Abstract: Freeze–thaw weathering of rock masses in cold regions is mainly caused by the freezing deformation of rock exposed to subfreezing temperature. The deformation behavior of freezing rock is focused on in this research. The ...
