6 Discussion
7 Conclusion
- The mean value of (MR mean = 439) for all granitic rock samples observed in this study and the mean value of (MR mean = 420) obtained by Deere (1968) for limestone and dolomite and the mean value of (MR mean = 380.5) obtained by Palchik (2011) for carbonate rock samples are similar. However, the range of (MR = 326.42–597.42) obtained in this study is narrower than the range of (MR = 250–700) obtained by Deere (1968) and the range of (MR = 60–1600) obtained by Palchik (2011).
- The observation confirms that there is no general empirical correlation (with reliable R2) between elastic modulus (E) and uniaxial compressive strength (σc), MR and maximum volumetric strain (εcd), MR and crack damage stress σcd.
- The analytical relationship (Eq. 1) between εa max and MR offered by Palchik (2011) for carbonate rock samples were investigated for granitic rock samples in this study. It is observed that this relationship can also be used for granitic rocks. The relative error \(\left( {\varsigma , \% } \right)\) for studied samples is between 0.2 and 24.5% and root-mean square error is \(\left( {\chi = 50} \right)\). Compare the values with the result obtained by Palchik (2011) for carbonate rock samples, the relative error is between 0.08 and 10.8% and the root-mean square error is 43.6.
- The observed correlation between MR and \(\varepsilon_{cd}\) for studied granitic rock sample is (R2 = 0.20). Palchik (2011); however, found a good relationship (R2 = 0.85) between these two parameters for carbonate rock samples.
- A mathematical model proposed by Palchik (2019) for very strong (σc > 100 MPa) carbonate rocks based on Haldane’s distribution function has a good predictive capability for the linear part of observed stress–strain relation of studied granitic rock samples; however, when it comes to non-linearity behaviour there is a significant difference.
- Based on proposed mathematical model by Palchik (2019), there is a very good linear correlation between observed and estimated stresses for studied granitic rock samples with the value of R2 = 0.99.
