3D Numerical Prediction of Thermal Weakening of Granite under Tension
This paper deals with numerical prediction of temperature (weakening) effects on the tensile strength of granitic rock. A 3D numerical approach based on the embedded discontinuity finite elements is developed for this purpose. The governing thermo-mechanical initial/boundary value problem is solved...
