Stress-deformed state of cylindrical specimens during indirect tensile strength testing

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2015
AbstractIn this study, the interaction between cylindrical specimen made of homogeneous, isotropic, and linearly elastic material and loading jaws of any curvature is considered in the Brazilian test. It is assumed that the specimen is diametrically compressed by elliptic normal contact stresses. The frictional contact stresses between the specimen and
