Selecting ground-motion models developed for induced seismicity in geothermal areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present a case study of the ranking and weighting of ground-motion prediction equations (GMPEs) for seismic hazard assessment of enhanced geothermal systems (EGSs).

Stress orientation to 5km depth in the basement below Basel (Switzerland) from borehole failure analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A vertical profile of maximum horizontal principal stress, SHmax, orientation to 5km depth was obtained beneath the Swiss city of Basel from observations of wellbore failure derived from ultrasonic televiewer images obtained in two 1km distant near ...

Numerical investigation of flow distribution and energy extraction in multi-fractured doublet Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermofluids
Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) offer significant potential for sustainable, high-temperature energy extraction, yet their efficiency depends strongly on how fluid flow and heat transfer evolve within complex fracture networks.

To Bleed‐Off or Not to Bleed‐Off?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Bleed‐off and shut‐in of injection have been implemented in different Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) in an attempt to mitigate the induced seismicity at and after the injection stop.
