What is the difference between modal and non modal spacing with respect to discontinuities in rocks. Modal and non modal terms are frequently used in describing the joints (discontinuities) in rocks. I tried to find it out through different resources but still feeling confused about these terms. i would appreciate your kind attention. regards

In DEC non modal refers to artificial joints that you used to create your model but they are not part of the geological structure of the problem at hand. while modal ones are the joints that are part of geology in nature or lab
