Injection Beamtime, mechanical data (NERC grant NE/M001458/1)
The mechanical data (confining and injection pressures) recorded during Vickers indentation experiments on samples of shale materials. These experiments were conducted on the I12 beamline, Diamond Light Source, Harwell as part of beamtime EE17606-1 between 31/01/18 and 05/02/18.

The data were collected using a newly developed X-Ray transparent pressure vessel, wherein 20mm diameter samples of shale containing a 1.2mm diameter borehole were confined at pressures up to 60MPa. The borehole was then pressurised until failure at a constant volume rate with repeated pauses to record tomographs. The entire assembly was mounted on the I12 beamline, and X-Ray tomographs were recorded repeatedly throughout the experiments. The method and results are described in detail by Chandler et al (2018, in prep) "In-situ X-ray tomography of fluid injection experiments on shale materials at elevated confining pressure"
