Loading Rate Dependence of Rock Strength Under Triaxial Compression

Knowledge regarding the time-dependent behavior of rocks is essential to estimate the long-term deformation and stability of underground structures. The rock strength increases with the increasing loading rate. However, the loading rate dependence in postfailure regions under confining pressure rema...
