Mechanical behaviour of medium-grained sandstones exposed to differential cyclic loading with distinct loading and unloading rates

This work aims to investigate the mechanical behaviour of medium-grained sandstones under cyclic loading with different loading/unloading rates. This type of cyclic loading is called differential cyclic loading (DCL) and is considered for testing rock behaviour. In the experiments, constant amplitud...
