Unconfined compressive strength of rock

Input(s)

SoS_{o}: Cohesive Strength (psi)

μ\mu: Slope of Failure Line (dimensionless)

Output(s)

CoC_{o}: Unconfined Compressive Strength of Rock (psi)

Formula(s)

Co=2So((μ2+1)0.5+μ)C_{\mathrm{o}}=2 * S_{\mathrm{o}} *\left(\left(\mu^{2}+1\right)^{0.5}+\mu\right)
