Effect of ambient humidity on the elasticity and deformation of unweathered granite

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: ETH Library and collaborators from the Department of Earth Sciences, ETH Zu00fcrich, Zu00fcrich, Switzerland, Department of Civil Engineering, Lassonde School of Engineering, York University, Toronto, Canada have published the Article: Effect of Ambient Humidity on the Elasticity and Deformation of Unweathered Granite, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 17/01/2022

SUMMARY

Similarly, increasing water content has been shown to reduce elastic stiffness in a variety of rock materials, though evidence for granites is limited. This study presents strains of an axially stressed (0.1 MPa) Herrnholz granite cylinder with ambient relative humidity . . .
