Mechanical Properties of Carboniferous Rocks in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin under Uniaxial and Triaxial Compression Tests

Journal of Mining Science Aims and scope

Abstract

Many years' studies of geological properties or rocks from the Upper Silesian Coal Basin have resulted in acquisition of a substantial data base of mechanical parameters or rocks over the total strain range. It is found that the post-peak rock properties are closely related with the peak strength and the pre-peak properties. The relationship between the uniaxial ultimate strength, elastic modulus, and drop modulus are determined.
