6. Discontinuity (geotechnical engineering): A discontinuity in geotechnical engineering (in geotechnical literature often denoted by joint) is a plane or surface that marks a change in physical or chemical characteristics in a soil or rock mass. A discontinuity can be, for example, a bedding ... (Engineering) [81%] 2022-04-14 [Mining engineering]
7. Asperity (geotechnical engineering): In geotechnical engineering and contact mechanics the term asperity is used to refer to individual features of unevenness (roughness) of the surface of a discontinuity, grain, or particle with heights in the range from approximately 0.1 mm to the ...

10. Tilt test (geotechnical engineering): In geomechanics, a tilt test is a simple test to estimate the shear strength parameters of a discontinuity. Two pieces of rock containing a discontinuity are held in hand or mounted in test equipment with the discontinuity horizontal. (Engineering) [70%] 2023-08-13 [Tunnel construction]
11. Sliding criterion (geotechnical engineering): The sliding criterion (discontinuity) is a tool to estimate easily the shear strength properties of a discontinuity in a rock mass based on visual and tactile (i.e. by feeling) characterization of the discontinuity.
