  3. 2. Controlling parameters for normal and shear behaviour of rock fractures-a study of direct shear test data from SKB

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Hanna Melin; [2012]
    Keywords : open fracture; shear strength; mechanical parameters; friction angle; roughness;
