Truncated gaussian simulation to map the spatial heterogeneity of rock mass rating

[Excerpt] Introduction: Mapping the intrinsic spatial variability of rock mass characteristics is an essential issue in geotechnical and geomechanical engineering, as these characteristics have a significant impact on the behavior of underground structures. Such mapping can be performed by recurrence...
