Laboratory estimates of normal/shear fracture compliance ratio
Laboratory estimates of the normal (Bn) and shear (Bt) compliance of an artificial fracture in a sample of Carboniferous limestone under wet and dry conditions are presented. The experiments were performed over a range of confining pressures (from 5 MPa up to 60 MPa), at ultrasonic frequencies (0.6...
