Heterogeneities in the elastic properties of microporous carbonate rocks at the microscale from nanoindentation tests

In this study, we used nanoindentation technique to map Young’s modulus of microporous limestones at the microscale (map of 300*300 µm2, with a step measurement of 10 µm). Results show a broad distribution of moduli, from very low values to values consistent with calcite mineral. Because the length...
