Abstract

The effect of layers consisting of small particles or asperities on contact surfaces on the deformation of a block medium as a whole and the failure of the blocks constituting the medium was studied experimentally. The samples were subjected to quasistatic uniaxial compression perpendicular to the contact surfaces. Numerical modeling was performed of wave propagation during pulse loading of a pair of blocks having rough surfaces of contact and made of a material with elastic characteristics close to the characteristics of marble and limestone.
