The effect of cracks on the uniaxial elastic compression of rocks
Abstract
Uniaxial elastic compression of rocks is characterized by nonlinear stress-strain behavior and hysteresis. Both effects, which are due to cracks, are analyzed here. An isotropic solid filled with a low concentration of planar elliptical cracks is used as a model. Young's modulus for an elastic solid containing cracks is less than that for an identical solid without cracks. The cracks close under increasing compressive stress, causing an increase in modulus. However, even when applied stress is sufficient to close all cracks, the modulus may still not be equal to that of solid material, since frictional sliding at crack faces can occur. It is shown that cracks which have slid do not immediately slide in the opposite sense when the load is lowered; thus Young's modulus for the material without cracks can be found by measuring the initial slope of the unloading part of the stress-strain curve of a cracked material.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
