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 ...

Rupture by damage accumulation in rocks [PDF]
The deformation of rocks is associated with microcracks nucleation and propagation, i.e. damage. The accumulation of damage and its spatial localization lead to the creation of a macroscale discontinuity, so-called "fault" in geological terms, and to the

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

Simulating spatial and temporal evolution of multiple wing cracks around faults in crystalline basement rocks [PDF]
Fault zones are structurally highly spatially heterogeneous and hence extremely complex. Observations of fluid flow through fault zones over several scales show that this structural complexity is reflected in the hydrogeological properties of faults ...

Typical misinterpretations and scientific concepts in well-logging geologic studies
The method and theoretical system of well logging geology have been widely used in the fields of basic geology, petroleum geology and engineering geology, but the different response sensitivity of different well logging series to geological information ...
