• Experimental Study of Direct Tensile Strength in Sedimentary Rocks 

      Jensen, Stina Stokmo (Master thesis, 2016)
      Tensile strength is an important parameter in rock mechanics and is amongst other things used as a criterion for initiation and propagation of fractures in hydraulic fracture modeling. The tensile strengths are determined ...
    • Laboratory Measurements of Strength Parameters for Fracturing 

      Walle, Lars Erik; Stroisz, Anna Magdalena; Brevik, Niklas Øystad; Jensen, Stina Stokmo; Holt, Rune Martin (Chapter, 2017)
      Fracture toughness and tensile strength are rock parameters that have influence on hydraulic fracture initiation and propagation, and that to various degrees are implemented in fracture modeling tools. Laboratory measurements ...
