We performed friction experiments on simulated gouges derived from the Ten Boer claystone and Slochteren sandstone members in the Groningen stratigraphy to test the effects of spatial heterogeneity on the fault mechanical behaviour. In this dataset we report microstructural data, mechanical data (raw data, processed date and fitted rate-and-state friction parameters) and scripts for data processing.
The data is provided in 19 subfolders for 19 experiments/samples. Detailed information about the files in these subfolders as well as information on how the data is processed is given in the explanatory file Data_Description.pdf. Contact person is Job Arts - PhD Candidate - j.p.b.arts@uu.nl
