Multiple contact compression tests on sand particles

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of multiple discrete contacts on the breakage of grain particles was investigated by crushing coarse grains of a quartz sand and a crushed limestone sand between a number of support particles, thereby varying the number of contacts.

Pore pressure estimation in reservoir rocks from seismic reflection data

TL;DR: In this article, a method is used to obtain pore pressure in shaly sandstones based upon an acoustic model for seismic velocity versus clay content and effective pressure, which is an improvement over existing pore-pressure prediction methods, which mainly rely on empirical relations between velocity and pressure.

Ultrasonic properties of sedimentary rocks: effect of pressure, saturation, frequency and microcracks

TL;DR: In this article, a combined model of local fluid flow (LF) and macrostructure (Gassmann effect, global fluid flow) is proposed to investigate the pressure-dependent closure of microcracks.

An experimental investigation of the micromechanics of Eglin sand

TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical behavior of Eglin sand at the micro-scale was studied in order to study the contact behavior of pairs of particles in both compression (normal loading) and shearing (tangential loading).
Journal ArticleDOI

Tremor during ice-stream stick slip

TL;DR: In this article, the authors conduct numerical simulations of the tremor episodes that include the balance of forces acting on the fault, the evolution of rate and state-dependent fault friction, and wave propagation from the fault patch to a seismometer located on the ice.
