A statistical study of the mechanical properties of a material was used to characterize the distribution and fracture mechanics in order to quantify the evolution of these distributions with sample sizes (grains and whole grains). This work presents the results of an experimental study made on the crushing of individual grains of limestone and samples consisting of multiple grains subjected to a uniaxial loading in order to highlight the influence of the loading and the grain size on the rate of crushing. A statistical study using the Weibull method allowed us to model the problem and quantify the rate of breakage for the two cases. The results obtained show that the rate of deflection depends on the grain size and the intensity of the applied load. Statistical modelling using the Weibull method gave us acceptable results in both cases.20122018-06-13 12:08:10Znanstveno delo70781ISSN: 1854-0171UDK: 621.926OceCobissID: 215987712COBISS_ID: 270616832ISSN pri članku: 1854-0171NUK URN: URN:SI:UM:DK:Y6LYWS6CslFakulteta za gradbeništvo, prometno inženirstvo in arhitekturo Univerze v Mariboru
