In-situ analysis of strain localization related to structural heterogeneities of carbonate rocks by Dimanov A., Gland N., Bornert M., Dautriat J., Raphanel J.

“…The technique of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) has been applied to study the deformation of porous carbonate rocks subjected to uniaxial compression tests. The tests have been performed at two different scales: on cylinders of 10 cm high compressed with a standard press with digital images recorded by optical microscopy at a global and local scale and on smaller parallelepiped samples deformed inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM). …”

Some aspects of soil formation on biogenic silicious rocks in Trans-Urals by A. O. Konstantinov, P. V. Smirnov, D. A. Gavrilov, S. V. Loiko, A. A. Novoselov

“…They are characterized by the presence of-the strong bleached eluvial strata, with a characteristic structure and visually diagnosed traces of dissolution of the original rock. When studying in thin sections and using a scanning electron microscope, it is found that the processes of soil formation occur synchronously with the dissolution and destruction of silicon microfossils. …”

Experimental investigation of the influence of carbonated water on sandstone and carbonate rock properties by Hisham Ben Mahmud, Mohamed Khalifa, Mian Shafiq, Ausama Giwelli

“…While at deeper depths from the injection position, it noticed an insignificant development in pore structure and its populations as well as rock hydraulic properties of both rock samples. In conclusion, the study revealed that the injected carbonated brine had a valuable impact on fluid-formation interactive, which improved rock's inlet properties compared with outlet.…”
