Size effects of the tensile mechanical behavior of basalt containing hidden joints investigated by DFN–FDEM modeling by Menghui Yang, Zhenjiang Liu, Yu Zhou

“…With an increase in the sample size, the stress–strain curve characteristics under Brazilian disc splitting transitioned from a single-peak shape to a zigzag shape and then to a multi-peak shape, and the failure modes also shifted from single-center splitting failure to local structure-controlled failure and ultimately to a multicenter splitting failure.(3) The failure mechanism of basalt containing hidden joints evolved with increasing sample size, progressing from high stress-induced tensile failure to local structure-controlled failure, and finally to tensile failure resulting from stress-structure coupling. …”
