Microstructure of Fine-Grained Sediments : From Mud to Shale PDF
Edited by Richard H. Bennett, William R. Bryant, Matthew H. Hulbert
Part of the Frontiers in Sedimentary Geology series
Description
Knowledge of basic clay microstructure is fundamental to an understanding of the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of fine-grained sediments and rocks.
This compilation of fifty-nine peer-reviewed papers examines clay microstructure in detail with comprehensive sections focusing on microstructure signatures, environmental processes, modeling, measurement techniques, and future research recommendations.
Many of these topics are discussed in light of geological and engineering applications, such as hazardous waste disposal, construction techniques, and drilling programs.
The field of clay microstructure is developing rapidly.
The concepts, observations, and principles presented in this book will help stimulate new thought and be a "spring board" for exciting new research.
