Modelling and Testing Strategies for Brittle Fracture Simulation in Crystalline Rock Samples
The failure of brittle rocks around deep underground excavations due to the high induced stress is controlled by the crack accumulation in the rock. The study shows that the damage initiation strength, CI, corresponds to the long-term strength, and the short-term strength of the brittle rocks in-sit...
