Modelling Elastic Properties of Clastic Rocks from Microtomographic Images Using Multi-Mineral Segmentation and Machine Learning

Modelling elastic properties from micro-CT images of rocks is essential for geophysical characterisation of the subsurface. This is achieved through an advanced physics-based multi-mineral image segmentation workflow, which is then automated using machine learning. The effects of intergranular conta...

description Modelling elastic properties from micro-CT images of rocks is essential for geophysical characterisation of the subsurface. This is achieved through an advanced physics-based multi-mineral image segmentation workflow, which is then automated using machine learning. The effects of intergranular contacts that are below the micro-CT resolution are modelled by a workflow that extracts their elastic properties from rock microstructure and ultrasonic measurements. I also developed a workflow that successfully detects pressure-induced deformation in micro-CT images.
