Influence of grain size heterogeneity on strength and microcracking behavior of crystalline rocks (2017, methodology): “For example, a Weibull distribution is used to account for the failure strength and elastic modulus of elements which are randomly distributed throughout the specimen [Tang et al., 2000].”

Influence of microscale heterogeneity and microstructure on the tensile behavior of crystalline rocks (2014, methodology): “A common means of incorporating heterogeneity into numerical models is via a stochastic distribution of properties, for instance, a Weibull distribution of elastic and strength properties [Tang et al., 2000; Wong et al., 2006; Fang and Harrison, 2002; Liu et al., 2004; Potyondy and Cundall, 2004].”
