Mechanical properties of mudstone caprock and influencing factors: implications for evaluation of caprock integrity

Mudstone is the most common cap rock in petroliferous basins. The mechanical properties of mudstone in different areas and buried depths are obviously different, which directly affects the brittleness and ductileness of caprock and its deformation characteristic. This research carried out X ray diff...
