Evolution of <i>b</i>-Value and Fractal Dimension of Acoustic Emission Events During Shear Rupture of an Immature Fault in Granite

The present study investigated the evolutions of <i>b</i>-value and fractal dimension of acoustic emission (AE) events during shear rupture of a naturally-created rough fracture in a granite specimen under triaxial compression. Acoustic emission signals were monitored by 16 sensors mount...
