Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Fracture Behavior for Transversely Isotropic Slate Using Semi-Circular Bend Method
Slate with inherently transverse isotropy is abundant in metamorphic rock, in buildings, and in geotechnical engineering worldwide; the tensile and shear fracture behavior of layered slate is vital to know for engineering applications. In this paper, the Brazilian and semi-circular bend (SCB) tests...
