Effects of loading rate on rock fracture: fracture characteristics and energy partitioning
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the energy partitioning in the dynamic fracture process of a short rod (SR) rock specimen was performed with the aid of the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) testing system and a high speed framing camera.
Journal ArticleDOI
The flattened Brazilian disc specimen used for testing elastic modulus, tensile strength and fracture toughness of brittle rocks; analytical and numerical results
TL;DR: In this paper, a flattened Brazilian disc specimen is used for determination of the elastic modulus E, tensile strength σ t and opening mode fracture toughness K IC for brittle rocks in just one test.
Journal ArticleDOI
An empirical relation between mode I fracture toughness and the tensile strength of rock
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of loading rate on rock fracture
TL;DR: In this paper, the fracture toughness of Fangshan gabbro and marble was measured over a wide range of loading rates, k =10−2-106 MPa m1/2 s−1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of high temperatures on dynamic rock fracture
TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamic fracture toughness of Fangshan gabbro and Fangshans marble subjected to high temperature was measured by means of the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) system.
