An Experimental Study on the Effects of True Triaxial Loading and Unloading Stress Paths on the Mechanical Properties of Red Sandstone

Loading and unloading stress paths play critical roles in investigating the deformation and failure of roadway excavation. In this study, tests under four different loading and unloading stress paths were conducted on red sandstone samples, with the aid of a self-developed true triaxial test system....
