Abstract

The surface morphology of the structural surface of the rock mass plays a crucial role in determining its macroscopic physical and mechanical properties, including shear strength and seepage characteristics. The morphological characteristics of the rock mass structure exhibit significant anisotropy and size effects. The distribution characteristics of the two key indicators that affect the morphological characteristics of the structure were analyzed, revealing that the undulation degree and undulation angle conform to the normal distribution and Weibull distribution, respectively. The present study defines a method for quantifying the 3D roughness of structural surface based on the features of undulation degree and undulation angle. Through quantitative analysis, it was observed that the roughness parameters exhibit anisotropic characteristics at different sampling intervals and shear directions.
