Non-Extensive Statistical Mechanics in Acoustic Emissions: Detection of Upcoming Fracture in Rock Materials

Acoustic emission (AE), recorded during uniaxial compressive loading with constantly increasing stress and stepped stress increments until the fracture of prismatic marble specimens, were analyzed in terms of non-extensive statistical mechanics (NESM). Initially introduced by Tsallis, NESM has prove...
