Crack coalescence in granite
… crack coalescence in prismatic Barre Granite specimens with two pre-cut, open flaws under uniaxial compression. Using a high-speed video system, crack initiation, propagation, and coalescence are observed. Flaw geometries are chosen to allow one to compare the results with those of …

Petrology of the Mount Airy granite
… mapping have been performed on the Mount Airy granite and enclosing country rock. The pluton.is unzoned, simply intruded, and composed of a medium-grained, white granite, containing 33-41% plagioclase (An₁₀₋₂₀), 27-35% quartz, 20-28% alkali feldspar (Or₉₀), and 3-13% color index minerals, …

Granite: A scientific database model and implementation
… of scientific databases. In particular, the Granite model encompasses a wide variety of datatypes used across many disciplines of science and engineering today. It is unique in that it defines dataset geometry and topology as separate conceptual components of a scientific dataset. We provide …

The Xenolithic suite of the Strontian Granite
The Strontian Granite in Argyllshire. is a composite pluton of late Caledonian age, emplaced into Moinian psammitic and pelitic rocks. It is composed of an outer tonalitic granodiorite (dated at 435 Ma.) passing into a porphyritic granodioritic, both xenolithic, and intruded by a younger alkali …

Mechanical behaviour of compacted decomposed granite soil
… determine the mechanical behaviour of decomposed granite soil, especially when it is used as a construction material. The soil tested was a completely weathered granite soil (grade V) taken from Seoul, Korea and was a well graded silty sand and gravel. Triaxial compression tests have been carried …

Granite By-Products for inverted pavement technique
… during these years, has produced huge amounts of granite by-products. The ornamental use of granite is an important money source for Sardinia. Unfortunately, as the virgin material extracted must have high aesthetic qualities, many rock blocks are rejected. This research has the aim of making the …
