Short summary
This was an experimental study of the strength of two rock types, over a range of pressure conditions that correspond to depths in the Earth’s crust ranging up to 12 km. Tests were carried out under different stress regimes to simulate extremes of the range of loading geometries encountered in the Earth and hence how these affect failure strength and resistance to frictional slip on faults. These experiments will promote understanding of rock behaviour in oil, gas and water reservoirs.
