This protocol allows to acquire particle scale data of granular soils using x-ray micro-tomography and develop a understanding of the micro-scale processes and mechanisms underlying the microscopic behavior of granular materials. The main advantag

The protocol describes procedures to acquire high-spatial resolution computed tomography (CT) images of a granular soil during triaxial compression, and to apply image processing techniques to these CT images to explore the grain-scale mechanical behavior of the soil under loading.
