Cracking of silty mudstone subjected to wetting-drying cycles

Cracking affected by wetting-drying cycles is a major cause of shallow failure of soft rock slopes. Knowledge of rock tensile properties and cracking behaviors helps better assess the stability of soft rock slopes. This study aims to examine the cracking behaviors and tensile strength of silty mudst...
