Effects of Flaw Geometry on the Fracturing Behavior of Rock-Like Materials Containing Two Arch-Like Parallelogram Flaws

Table 6

Crack binarization images and the distribution of main cracks dip angle in ultimate failure modes of the specimens containing two parallelogram flaws at α = β = 45°, α = 45 < β = 60°, and α = 45 < β = 75° under uniaxial compression.
