ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to analyze distribution and development of stress-stress state in structured rock specimens subject to uniaxial and biaxial loading to failure using digital speckle correlation method. Within the experimental analysis of wave processes in the block-hierarchy structure of geomedia (uniaxial and biaxial compression and shearing of prismatic geomaterial specimens), the authors revealed the fact of initiation of low-frequency micro-deformation processes under slow (quasi-static) disturbances. The estimation of the deformation-wave behavior of geomaterials as the “summed” contributions made by elements of the scanned surfaces with different-oriented (in-phase and anti-phase) oscillations has been performed using the energy approach that is based on the scanning function R, analogous to the “center of mass” in the classical mechanics.
