DOI: 10.1007/s00603-020-02098-z
Abstract: Flexural toppling often occurs in layered rock slopes, and rock columns behave like inclined superimposed cantilever beams that bend under their own weight. However, anti-dip rock slopes always have nonuniform joint spacing, and rock columns… read more here.
