Unconfined or uniaxial compressive strength versus number of tangential contacts (tan. index) and grain contact areas (grain contact). e. an increase in the interlocking. upon the fundamental processes that may have been operative. The main diagenetic processes which primarily control porosity reduction in sediments, and therefore also the development of microfabric in these sands (as discussed by Fuchtbauer 1967, Bjorlykke 1983 and Houseknecht 1984) are: (i) Mechanical compaction due to overburden pressure--causing the rotation, reorientation and fracturing of competent grains, and the plastic deformation of ductile components.
