A phase-field modeling approach of fracture propagation in poroelastic media [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering Geology, 2018, 240: 189-203, 2019
This paper proposes a phase field model for fracture in poroelastic media. The porous medium is modeled based on the classical Biot poroelasticity theory and the fracture behavior is controlled by the phase field model. Moreover, the fracture propagation is driven by the elastic energy where the phase field is used as an interpolation function to ...

Numerical simulation of zonal disintegration of surrounding rock in the deep‐buried chamber

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 174-182, December 2022., 2022
Based on the finite difference software FLAC3D, the numerical simulation of cavern surrounding rock under different working conditions was carried out by using Bilinear Strain‐Softening Ubiquitous‐Joint Model (Subi). The effects of buried depth, cohesion and internal friction angle of surrounding rock on the discontinuous deformation are analyzed, and ...

Automatic and Manual Fracture-Lineament Identification on Digital Surface Models as Methods for Collecting Fracture Data on Outcrops: Case Study on Fractured Granite Outcrops, Bangka

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Three-dimensional outcrop models, or Digital Surface Models (DSMs), have proved their capacity in many geoscience studies. Along with the advantage in the rapid acquisition, DSMs are capable of creating virtual models of fractured outcrops to be ...

Structure and fracture characterization of the Jizan group: Implications for subsurface CO2 basalt mineralization

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The coastal region of southwest Saudi Arabia contains a thick sequence of Late Oligocene basalts in the Jizan Group, which accumulated along the continental rift that preceded the opening of the Red Sea. These basalts are targeted for the disposal of CO2

Hydrogeological feasibility of mine water deep geological storage in Baotashan coarse sandstone: A case study in Ordos Basin

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 148-164, December 2022., 2022
We conducted a new approach of mine water‐deep geological storage, the results showed that the hydrogeological feasibility of Baotashan coarse sandstone (BCS) was impressive and useful for real project. The effective porosity of BCS aquifers ranged from 1.36% to 3.46% and the capacity of mine water geological storage was 0.455–1.266 Mm3 for 1 km2 in ...

Estimation of the Fracturing Parameters and Reservoir Permeability Using Diagnostic Fracturing Injection Test

open access: yesIraqi Geological Journal, 2023
The term "tight reservoir" is commonly used to refer to reservoirs with low permeability. Tight oil reservoirs have caused worry owing to its considerable influence upon oil output throughout the petroleum sector.

Multiscale simulation of injection-induced fracture slip and wing-crack propagation in poroelastic media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In fractured poroelastic media under high differential stress, the shearing of fractures and faults and the corresponding propagation of wing cracks can be induced by fluid injection. Focusing on low-pressure stimulation with fluid pressures below the minimum principal stress but above the threshold required to overcome the fracture's frictional ...
