Failure Mechanisms and Strength of Non-Persistent Rock Joints
… assumes full shear strength along joint and rock bridge is a useful reference condition. The Bridge Mobilized Strength Ratio, BMSR, provides a means of assessing how much of the reference strength along the bridge is mobilized. The MBSR is the ratio of (mobilized shear strength minus shear …

INVESTIGATING THE IMPACT OF ROCK BRIDGES ON THE MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF JOINTED ROCK MASS USING LATTICE SPRING-BASED SYNTHETIC ROCK MASS (LS-SRM) APPROACH
<p>"Rock bridges were defined as a segment of intact rock that separates from discontinuities. Numerous studies are focused on developing methods to quantify their significance in rock mass strength and deformability behavior. This thesis aimed to enhance understanding of the effect of rock bridges …
