Abstract

The electrical resistivity of cement mortar increased monotonically during compression. An increase in strain rate caused the resistivity at any strain level to decrease, in addition to causing the resistivity at failure to decrease. This means that the microstructural change that occurred continuously during loading decreased with increasing strain rate.
