Project Rock properties during debonding

From CT-scans, investigation of the impact of the debonding on the elastic properties (Young, bulk and shear) of a cemented granular medium. The microstructure evolution is solved with a Phase-Field formulation, while the mechanical homogeneization is solved with a Fast-Fourier Transform.
