description abstract | This paper presents the formulation and application of a composite element method, which is intended for numerical modeling of discontinuous rock masses. This method allows analysis of fractured rock masses using regular meshes that do not need to rigorously respect the orientations and positions of discontinuities. It can be incorporated in conventional finite-element programs. The performance of this method are illustrated through its use for the analysis of the mechanical behavior of the Baozhusi gravity dam which is constructed on a complex rock foundation. | |
