Effect of microwave irradiation on thermal damage behavior of granite: Uniaxial compression test and finite-discrete approach

Microwave-assisted rock-breaking technology, as a novel hybrid approach, is anticipated to facilitate the efficient excavation of complex rock formations. It is therefore crucial to understand the damage and failure mechanisms of rocks that have been subjected to irradiation. In this study, uniaxial...
