Determining relative block structure rating for rock erodibility evaluation in the case of non-orthogonal joint sets
The most commonly used method for assessing the hydraulic erodibility of rock is Annandale's method. This method is based on a correlation between the erosive force of flowing water and the capacity of rock resistance. This capacity is evaluated using Kirsten's index, which was initially d...
