... ABSTRACT: Barton suggested 1% displacement as a “rule-of-thumb” for peak shear displacement of fractures (dpeak=0.01 L ). In addition, he introduced an empirical equation for dpeak based on JRC (Joint Roughness Coefficient) and the fracture length ( L ). The effect of normal stress...

Abstract Among the constitutive models for rock fractures developed over the years, Barton’s empirical model has been widely used because it is easy to apply and includes several important factors associated with fracture characteristics. Anisotropic behavior of rock joints were investigated...
