Effect of Wet-Dry Cycles on the Mechanical Performances and Microstructure of Pisha Sandstone
The effects of the wet–dry cycles on the chemical compositions, microstructure, and mechanical properties of Pisha sandstone were experimentally investigated in the current study. A series of uniaxial compression tests were conducted to validate the deterioration of the mechanical property of specimens after wet–dry cycles.
