The scope of the studies embraces statistical and mechanical properties of surface of different kind crystals of salt rocks. Fractal dimension, hardness and elasticity moduli of such crystals are determined. The article gives estimates of fracture toughness and wettability of salt rock crystals as function of fractal dimension of the crystal surface microrelief.
The article reports data on continuous indentation of different rank black coal and anthracite. The test specimens are specially prepared, and their faces are differently oriented relative to their bedding planes. Different mechanical behavior of coal and anthracite microcomponents in different planes relative to bedding is identified, and relevant values of elasticity modulus and hardness are determined...
