Paper presented at the Gulf Rocks 2004, the 6th North America Rock Mechanics Symposium (NARMS), June 5–9, 2004
Paper Number: ARMA-04-464
... ABSTRACT: Cyclic loading (fatigue) tests were performed on thick-wall hollow cylinders of reservoir rock material. The number of cycles to failure follows a log relationship with the peak cyclic load, for cycles less than 100 and peak loads less than 87% of the base hole collapse strength...

... Analysis (DRA) methods proposed for estimating in-situ stresses from cored rock samples are based on the principle of the Kaiser effect (Kaiser, 1953). This phenomenon suggests that a previously applied maximum stress might be detected by loading a rock specimen to a point where there is a substantial...
