Introduction: geology of fractured reservoirs
Journal of the Geological Society, 2020 The characterization of fractured reservoirs and fractured geothermal resources requires a thorough understanding of the geological processes involved during fracturing and the rheological properties of the host rock. The presence or absence of mechanical layering within the rock and the mode of failure substantially control the organization and ...

Fault-induced mechanical anisotropy and its effects on fracture patterns in crystalline rocks [PDF]
, 2022 We used drone-acquired orthophotographs to map the 2D-networks of fractures transecting the Mesoproterozoic Rapakivi granites in southern Finland. The work aims at understanding i) how discrete faults and the kine-matically linked syn-fault extension ...

Quantitative determination of fault slip magnitude: a review
Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2023 In geology, a fault is a rock fracture with perceptible relative displacement of the opposite sides of the fracture. Quantitatively obtaining the activity history of faults depends mainly on the estimation of fault slip and the study of markers, which ...
