Exploratory Experimental Study on the Mechanical Properties of Granite Subjected to Cyclic Temperature and Uniaxial Stress

This paper investigates the variation of mechanical properties of granite during temperature and stress cycling, which is an important part of evaluating the long-term thermal and mechanical stability of thermal energy storage. Cyclic temperature and loading tests were conducted where the upper limi...
