Brazilian Test for Tensile Failure of Anisotropic Shale under Different Strain Rates at Quasi-static Loading
Shale formations show obvious anisotropic characteristics in their mechanical properties due to pronounced bedding planes and natural fractures. This anisotropic behavior generally creates complex fracturing networks and is crucial to gas shale stimulation. Although much research has been done to st...
