Cracking Mode Analysis of Crack Initiation in Rocks under Uniaxial Compression
Crack initiation is related to the behavior of the preexisting microcracks within a rock specimen, which suggests the specimen starts to fail. The determination of crack initiation stress is important for identifying the elastic stage and related mechanical parameters. Uniaxial compression tests wit...
