Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Highlights

  • The proposed method solves the difficulty of unstable sliding rock (USR) adjustment.

  • The study provides a judgment criterion for the quantitative identification of USR.

  • The improved method can provide a practical reference for engineers engaged in rapidly identifying USR.
