Abstract
Rock can undergo shape deformation and damage due to the influence of joint fissures, and the range of damage caused by joints at different rock bridge angles varies. To study the influence of rock bridge angle on the size effect of rock secant modulus, this paper adopts the principle of regression analysis and combines numerical simulation to carry out relevant research. The research results indicate that: (1) As the rock bridge angle increases, the secant modulus gradually decreases, following a power function relationship. (2) As the rock size increases, the secant modulus shows a trend of first decreasing and then stabilizing, following a power function relationship. (3) As the rock bridge angle increases, the characteristic tangent modulus and characteristic size gradually decrease, following a power function relationship. On this basis, we obtained their relationship formulas separately.
