Use of Acoustic Emission for the Detection of Brittle Rock Failure under Various Loading Rates

Acoustic emission has a direct correspondence to the internal damage of a material. To determine the effects of the loading rate on the mechanical properties of rock, the initial damage was characterized using the acoustic emission technique when a uniaxial preloading was imposed on a cylindrical ro...
