Fig.8-10 (a) Relationship between the types of fractures propagating from faults (modeled by artificial fractures) in the rock failure experiment and (b) the ductility index
A dilatant fracture (T) is a fracture with evidence of tensile failure. A shear fracture (S) is a fracture that exhibits only the evidence of shear failure, without tensile failure.
