Flow Through Inhomogeneous Fault Zones
Proceedings of SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2007Abstract Faults significantly influence fluid flow in reservoirs. In standard reservoir flow-simulator grids, faults are represented as surfaces or planes. However, outcrop studies show that faults often must be regarded as volumetric elements.

Relating Fault Mechanics to Fault Zone Structure
2004Abstract The fault zone of a mature large-displacement fault may be idealized as a nested hierarchical structure consisting of a core of extremely fine grained material surrounded by coarser granulated gouge and breccia which is in turn bordered by fracture-damaged wall rock in which the fracture density decreases with distance to a regional ...

The influence of fault compaction on fault zone evolution
Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 1998Abstract A numerical simulation of coupled fluid flow and failure in a fault zone is presented, that shows the impact of the dynamics of fault growth on the relationship between seismic and sub-seismic fault scaling. A tabular fault zone is modelled which undergoes non-uniform compaction, leading to development of pressure gradients in the ...
