The results show that there is no difference between the strengths of two horizontal samples with grain sizes ranging from 1 to 4 mm and 4 to 14 mm, while the strength of the 1--4 mm vertical samples is 1.4 times higher than that of the 4--14 mm vertical samples because of the change of crystal structure. For different load- ing directions, the strengths of the horizontal samples do not differ from those of the vertical samples with the same grain sizes. The relation among the uniaxial compressive strength, strain rate and temperature was established through data analysis in both the ductile and brittle regions.展开更多
