Geomechanical characterisation of organic-rich shale properties using small scale experiments and homogenisation methods

Shale, or mudstone, is the most common sedimentary rock. It is a heterogeneous, multimineralic natural composite consisting of clay mineral aggregates, organic matter, and variable quantities of minerals such as quartz, calcite, and feldspar. Determination of the mechanical response of shales throug...
