Specimens Size Effect on Mechanical and Fracture Properties of Rocks: a Review

Alireza Dolatshahi; Hamed Molladavoodi

Volume 14, Issue 4 , October 2023, , Pages 1273-1293

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2023.12948.2350

Abstract
  The structure's response to the region's prevailing loading conditions guides the engineers in estimating the resilience of the structural materials and their reinforcement. One of the main concerns in designing rock structures is paying attention to the size effect phenomenon. The size effect influences ...  Read More

Effect of Glass and Polypropylene Hybrid Fibers on Mode I, Mode II, and Mixed-Mode Fracture Toughness of Concrete Containing Micro-Silica and Limestone Powder

D. Fakhri; M. Hosseini; M. Mahdikhani

Volume 13, Issue 2 , April 2022, , Pages 559-577

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2022.11936.2188

Abstract
  Fracture toughness is an important concrete property that controls crack extension and concrete fracture. Concrete is the most widely used material in civil engineering containing the most conventional and cheapest materials. Accordingly, cracks and fractures may cause irreparable damages. To this end, ...  Read More

Rock Mechanics
Effects of temperature and confining pressure on mode II fracture toughness of rocks (Case study: Lushan Sandstone)

M. Hosseini; A. R. Khodayari

Volume 9, Issue 2 , April 2018, , Pages 379-391

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2018.6450.1463

Abstract
  The fracture mechanics examines the development and expansion of cracks in solids and how they affect the deformation of materials. The stress intensity factors at the tip of the crack and the critical stress intensity factors or fracture toughness of materials are considered in the relevant criteria. ...  Read More
