Microscale Mechanical-Chemical Modeling of Granular Salt: Insights for Creep

Mengsu Hu et al.

Summary: The study developed a new microscale mechanical-chemical model that showed sharp corners of mineral grains dominating the contact dynamics, microfracturing, and pressure solution in salt systems, thus influencing structural changes and porosity loss. The analysis revealed that pressure solution dissolved sharp corners and edges, leading to relatively high porosity loss, playing a crucial role in salt creep. Dynamic changes in salt granular systems involving grain relocation and pressure solution were identified as contributing factors to longer-term salt creep at larger scales.
