Dear all,
I have a question regarding Uniaxial compression test.
What is the mode of fracture in uniaxial compression test?
Is it local tensile fracture that is predominantly parallel to applied stress?
Could it also happen in case of nmacroscopic shear fracture.
Why is it not dependent on confining stress?
