Experimental Investigation into Processes of Crack Formation in Rock Samples with Hole

  • Published:
Journal of Mining Science Aims and scope

Abstract

The procedure is developed for the experimental investigation into origination and propagation of cracks in geomaterials. The surface conductivity sensors were used to record the processes of crack growth. The results of test on model material represented by gypsum are cited.
