Experimental Study on Stress Wave Propagation Crossing the Jointed Specimen with Different JRCs

Most of the rock masses in the outer crust of the Earth are discontinuous. They are divided by joints, faults, fractures, etc. And those discontinuities, generally referred to as joints, greatly affect the property of the rock masses. The paper experimentally investigates the stress wave propagation...

description Most of the rock masses in the outer crust of the Earth are discontinuous. They are divided by joints, faults, fractures, etc. And those discontinuities, generally referred to as joints, greatly affect the property of the rock masses. The paper experimentally investigates the stress wave propagation crossing the jointed specimens. The tests were conducted on the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). The test specimens consist of two parts cast by cement mortar. Both parts have an irregular surface, and they were designed to match each other completely. The surfaces where two parts meet make an artificial joint. The surfaces of the joints were scanned by a three-dimensional scanner to obtain its actual topography and then to calculate the roughness of the surface, i.e., the joint roughness coefficient (JRC).
