The group has recently had a paper accepted in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, titled "Effect of Diagenesis on Geomechanical Properties of Organic-rich Calcareous Shale: A Multiscale Investigation".

The paper investigates the nano to core-scale geomechanical properties of a maturity series of organic-rich, calcareous shales buried to 100-180°C. The study focused on the mechanical properties of organic matter, the elastic response and anisotropy of the shale composite at micro and core scale, and the time-dependent (creep) mechanical response.
