Fracture Processes in Granite Blocks Under Blast Loading
Fracture Processes in Granite Blocks Under Blast Loading is a scholarly work, published in 2018 in ''Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering''. The main subjects of the publication include strain gauge, explosive chemicals, composite material, high-speed camera, rock mechanics, progressive collapse, fracture, detonation, digital image correlation, geology, materials science, and pentaerythritol tetranitrate. Using the high-speed camera, dominant vertical cracks were found to initiate on the surface of the cubes within 250 µs of the charge detonation.
