Brazilian Disc Tensile Strength (BDTS) data of tests conducted on salt samples from the Northwich Halite Member

The dataset contains indirect tensile strength data of salt samples collected from the Northwich Halite Member at the Winsford Mine in Cheshire, UK. Each sample was unconfined and deformed under...

Fluid-driven tensile fracture and fracture toughness in Nash Point shale at elevated pressure (NERC grant NE/L009110/1)

A number of processes, both natural and anthropogenic, involve the fracture of rocks subjected to tensile stress, including vein growth and mineralization, and the extraction of hydrocarbons...

UK in-situ stress field orientation from borehole breakouts and drilling induced tensile fractures identified using borehole imaging

This datasets contains 323 observations of borehole breakouts across and drilling induced tensile fractures from borehole imaging used to re-characterise the UK stress field orientation in 2016....

UK in-situ stress field orientation from borehole breakouts and drilling induced tensile fractures identified using borehole imaging (2020)

This datasets contains 323 observations of borehole breakouts across and drilling induced tensile fractures from borehole imaging used to re-characterise the UK stress field orientation in 2016....

Geomechanical Properties of the Carboniferous Middle Coal Measures: Influence on fracture fluid flow and frictional stability during geothermal utilisation (UKGEOS Glasgow)

UKGEOS and Core Sample Analysis. Geomechanical testing was performed to determine triaxial compressional strength, tensile strength, frictional strength and permeability of sandstones, siltstones,...

Geomechanical properties of the Carboniferous Middle Coal Measures (Boreholes GGC01 and GGA08)

A brief description of ten core plug samples collected from borehole GGC01 (Glasgow, United Kingdom) is provided, as well as for twelve 15-50 g cuttings samples from 1m intervals within borehole...

Numerical modelling of fracture intensity increase due to interacting blast waves in three-dimensional granitic rocks

This work presents a detailed three-dimensional finite element based model for wave propagation, combined with a postprocessing procedure to determine the fracture intensity caused by blasting. The...

Global river cellulose decomposition assay data 2016-17

This dataset contains information regarding mountain river sites sampled in 2016-17. It includes: 1) physicochemical parameters of the river sites sampled, 2) tensile-strength loss data of a...
