peer reviewedHydraulic tension fractures were produced in porous limestones using a specially designed hydraulic cell. The 3D geometry of the samples was imaged using X-ray computed microtomography before and after fracturation. Using these data, it was possible to estimate the permeability tensor of the core samples, extract the path of the rupture and compare it to the heterogeneities initially present in the rock.Des échantillons de calcaires poreux ont été fracturés dans une cellule hydraulique spécialement construite à cet effet. La géométrie 3D des échantillons a été mesurée par microtomographie synchrotron avant et après fracturation. Les données obtenues ont permis de 1) calculer le tenseur de perméabilité; 2) caractériser la rug...
