Mechanical Properties of Nugget Sandstone
Description:
The mechanical properties of Nugget sandstone have been determined from a number of independent measurements at pressures up to 30 kbar. Pressure- volume, strength, uniaxial stress, and uniaxial strain tests yield the failure surface and effective moduli as a function of stress state, i.e., mean pressure and shear stress. Acoustic velocity determinations provide the effective moduli for low-amplitude dynamic waves. At atmospheric pressure the initial effective bulk modulus in tests with applied…
