The effect of combined proppants upon the fracture conductivity in tight gas reservoirs
Energy Reports, 2020 Sand and ceramic proppant are the most commonly used materials to keep fractures open during hydraulic fracturing. Ceramic proppant has higher hardness and sphericity than sand, but it is much more expensive.

Hydraulic conductivity of rock fractures [PDF]
Transport in Porous Media, 1996 The flow of a single-phase fluid through a rough-walled rock fracture is discussed within the context of fluid mechanics. The derivation of the ‘cubic law’ is given as the solution to the Navier-Stokes equations for flow between smooth, parallel plates - the only fracture geometry that is amenable to exact treatment. The various geometric and kinematic
