Influence of Schistosity Orientation on Failure Mode and Indirect Tensile Strength of Mica Schist
The indirect tension test is an important laboratory test for rock characterization. The presence of rock fabric, such as schistosity, complicates the assessment of test results.

CURRENT COGNITION OF ROCK TENSILE STRENGTH TESTING BY BRAZILIAN TEST
Tensile strength in rock mechanics is a characteristic more frequently determined in the indirect rather than direct way. This paper presents a historical review of the development of the indirect method called the Brazilian test, comprising the period ...
