2D image cross-sections from the center of the results of the PD simulations along the vertical axis and 3D visualizations of the interior. Damage is displayed above the threshold of 0.01 in the 3D images which emphasizes that damage is localized around the clay inclusions. The PD model results adequately reflect the experimental observations shown in Fig. 1.
