Experimental Investigation of Progressive Failure Processes Using 3D Acoustic Emission Tomography

In this paper, the potential of 3D acoustic emission (AE) tomography technique in demonstrating fracture development and delineating stress conditions was examined. Brazilian tests and uniaxial compression tests were monitored by 3D AE tomography. AE counts, AE source locations and 3D tomographic im...
