Shear strengths of fractures in Tak granite under orthotropic stresses

The objective of this study is to determine the shearing resistance of fractures in Tak granite as affected by orthotropic stress states where σ1≠σ2≠σ3. Triaxial shear tests are performed to obtain the strengths and dilations of tension-induced fractures and smooth saw-cut surfaces under confining...
