Crack initiation, propagation and coalescence in rock-like material containing two flaws : a numerical study based on bonded-particle model approach

Cracking and coalescence behavior in a rectangular rock-like specimen containing two parallel (stepped and coplanar) pre-existing open flaws under uniaxial compression load has been numerically studied by a parallel bonded-particle model, which is a type of bonded-particle model. Crack initiation an...
