Figure 6

Comparison of strain distributions between high-resolution and downscaled data. DVC absolute cumulative volumetric strain distributions for high-resolution and downscaled data superimposed on the SR-µCT sections on the region of high-resolution DVC and on whole sample section (sample 9). On the second row, the original high-resolution (unfiltered and unmasked) images are shown. Strains from 3rd to 7th loading step are shown where load step 7 is at post-yield and load step 6 shortly after yield-point. Blue arrows indicate cracks and white boxes in the whole sample figures show the ROI of the high-resolution DVC. On the right SR-µCT post-yield images without strains are shown, blue arrows indicate the global fracture line (see Supplementary Fig. 3 for raw volumetric strains between each load step). The direction of loading is perpendicular to the figure plane.
