CT-Scan Image Dataset of Residual Fluid-Driven Fracture in a Molasse de Villarlod Sandstone Core - Post-Radial Hydraulic Fracture Experiment - M04 Sample - Fracture Tip Region with Higher Resolution

Dataset Description

This dataset contains high-resolution CT-scan images capturing the residual fracture surface at the tip of a fracture in the M04 core sample of Molasse du Villars sandstone. This dataset, with a 5-micron resolution, specifically focuses on the fracture tip. In contrast, the previous dataset encompassed the entire fracture from inlet to tip with a 10-micron resolution.

For all other details, please refer to the previous dataset. The link to the previous dataset is:
