0A Study on RockIndentation Hardness with MTS Rock Mechanics Test System

Abstract:

This article introduced author's successful several post failure rock indentation experiment using their special implement and indenter with flat fundus under MTS815 Rock Mechanism Test System. The author analyzed the advantage in characterizing rock crush process and rock indentation hardness compared with traditional testing methods. At the end of the article, a few interesting subjects were presented which need to be further researched.
