Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The results of a triaxial measurements on drained smectite rich shale have been analyzed. Static and dynamic properties of the shale were found to depend on shale matrix alteration due to differential thermal expansion and chemical alteration effects. Strong creep has been observed, which seems to originate from poroelastic effects, notably pore fluid drainage, and from rearrangement of matrix and pore space.
