Sammanfattning
Recent advancements in x-ray technology have enabled non destructive 3D sub-micron
imaging of clay. In this work, a 3D tomography of kaolinite particles is analysed.
Conventional segmentation algorithms are used along with a deep learning-aided
method, which brings novelty to the clay research area. The clay image is segmented
to acquire morphological properties of the material, intended to be used to inform
continuum models for clay used at the engineering scale. Imaging clay is especially
challenging because of its small particle size and thin aggregated platelets. A small
clay dataset will be developed to evaluate the performance of segmentation techniques
and to train a machine learning-model called the Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM
2). Advanced contemporary studies in biomedical segmentation show compelling
results using SAM 2 and this study is proposing to bring this technique into the area
of geomechanics. This study aims to lay a path for future research to strengthen
the link between physical relationships and observed clay behaviour by providing
information of clay micro-structures.
