Support type influence on rock fracture toughness measurement using semi-circular bending specimen

In the present manuscript, the importance of support type on accurate determination of rock fracture toughness in semi-circular bending (SCB) test is demonstrated. First, by employing the finite element (FE) method, a detailed study is conducted to assess the effect of support friction on the mode I...
