Empirical correlation of uniaxial compressive strength and primary wave velocity of Malaysian granites

Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) plays a significant role in influencing the stability of structures such as cut slopes and excavation in rock masses. The rock material parameter of UCS also serves as an input parameter for geomechanical modeling in fracture basement studies. However, uniaxial...
