Stress corrosion crack growth in porous sandstones
Stress corrosion crack growth occurs when the chemical weakening of strained crack tip bonds facilitates crack propagation. I have examined the effect of chemical processes on the growth of a creack population by carrying out triaxial compression tests on Clashach and Locharbriggs sandstones at temp...
