Estimation of Sedimentary Rock Porosity Using a Digital Image Analysis

Pore space characterisation is important in assessing the strength and hydraulic characteristics of rock. This paper proposes a new relationship to estimate the porosity of natural rocks using the data from a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a pore and crack analysis system (PCAS). The obtaine...
