Brief communication: The influence of mica-rich rocks on the shear strength of ice-filled discontinuities

<p>A temperature- and stress-dependent failure criterion for ice-filled rock (limestone) joints was proposed in 2018 as an essential tool to assess and model the stability of degrading permafrost rock slopes. To test the applicability to other rock types, we conducted laboratory tests with mic...
