Statistical analysis of acoustic emissions generated during unconfined uniaxial compression of cementitious materials

The article reports a study on the ‘goodness of fit’ of Weibull and Normal (Gaussian) distributions on the compressive strength and the corresponding Acoustic Emissions (AE) of cementitious materials. An attempt has been made to understand the variation of the parameters of the Weibull distribution and the Gaussian distribution carried out on the uniaxial compressive strength data and the corresponding recorded AE parameters. The statistical...
