Evaluation of tensile strength of Brazilian test under solid and ring disks using finite element analysis

The tensile strength of intact rock materials has been determined by indirect method more frequent than the direct method. The most commonly used indirect method is Brazilian test. Stress and deformability undergo during the test reflected by geometry shape of the samples with respect to the differe...
