Elastic Constants

  • Ultrasonic velocity (axial, transverse, and low frequency)
  • Linear compressibility
  • Grain compressibility
  • Confined compression
  • Pore volume compaction
  • Pore pressure depletion under uniaxial strain
  • Uniaxial strain

Fracture and Failure

  • Strength
  • Fracture toughness
  • Unconfined and confined compression tests to failure
  • Multistage confined compression
