Fig. 1From: The dynamic evolution of compaction bands in highly porous carbonates: the role of local heterogeneity for nucleation and propagationa Scanning electron microscope (SEM) image and b micro-CTÂ tomograph image of the Mount Gambier limestone showing strong micro-structural heterogeneity. c Normalized incremental intruded volume, and cumulative porosity versus pore diameter in semi-logarithmic scale, obtained by mercury intrusion capillary pressure porosimetry (MICP). The three tests show representative results of a total of 9 measurements. The shadow areas correspond pore-size ranges of the two samples to be resolved by X-ray micro-tomographyBack to article page
