An approach for quantifying the three-dimensional joint roughness coefficient of rock joints during rotary drilling
摘要
In modern pile foundation drilling operations, rotating drilling tools leave a series of irregular joints on rock surfaces. Currently, there are certain limitations in research on the roughness of rock joints. For a more accurate quantification of the roughness of a rock joint under rotary-drilling conditions, the geometry of the rock joint surface was obtained using a three-dimensional non-contact high-precision laser scanner. Twenty joint surface contours were intercepted along the shear direction of the XZ system. The mean height h0 and root mean square (RMS) σ of the centerline reflect the undulation characteristics of the joint surface, and the average inclination angle
