Fig. A1

The yield envelope of carbonate (with a basic quadratic fitting curve). Three exterior failure patterns are observed at 1 MPa (high-angle shear band), 3 MPa (shear-enhanced compaction bands), and 5 MPa (discrete compaction bands) indicating a progressive transition in failure pattern with increasing the confining pressure.
