Abstract
As the weak part in shale formations, the bedding plane is an important element affecting the stability of boreholes and the formation of hydraulic fracture networks. To study the influence of bedding plane on the progressive failure process of rock, a series of uniaxial compressive tests were conducted on shale samples with bedding plane orientations (θ) of 0–90° with respect to the axial stress directions. The pre-peak failure process of shale...
