Post failure behaviour of a rock mass under the influence of triaxial and true triaxial confinement

Engineering Geology, 2006
In this paper results of triaxial and true triaxial testing conducted on physical models of a rock mass are used to describe its post failure behaviour. The specimens comprised of three continuous joint sets and were prepared from blocks of sand lime model material.

True Triaxial Testing of Anisotropic Solids

56th U.S. Rock Mechanics/Geomechanics Symposium, 2022
ABSTRACT: Accurate determination of rock mechanical properties (particularly sedimentary shales, mica and schists with foliation and bedding planes) is critical to the safe design and excavation of underground mines and tunnels.

Triaxial and True Triaxial Testing of Preserved and Partially Saturated Shale

Proceedings, 2016
Samples of a clay-rich shale have been subjected to standard and true triaxial stress conditions to investigate the impact of the intermediate principal stress on shale strength and elastic stiffness. In addition, samples were immersed in different relative humidity environments to evaluate the impact of changing water saturation on rock properties ...

Development of a True Triaxial Testing Apparatus

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 1992
Abstract A stress-controlled, flexible boundary, true (or cubical) triaxial apparatus has been developed to investigate the behavior of cemented sand under various stress paths which are not achievable using conventional axisymmetric triaxial apparatus.
