Multi-phase fluid-loss properties and return permeability of energized fracturing fluids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
textWith the growing interest in low-permeability gas plays, foam fracturing fluids are now well established as a viable alternative to traditional fracturing fluids. Present practices in energized fracturing treatments remain nonetheless rudimentary in

Fem Analysis of Proppant Sticking in Rock Cracks

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering, 2018
The problem of effective gas extraction from Polish shale rocks is an interesting research subject for scientists. A properly selected proppant, which protects cracks from closing during the fracturing process, inestimably contributes to an increase of ...

Fractures of the distal radius (Colles' fracture) [PDF]

open access: yesSao Paulo Medical Journal, 2007
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Although Colles' fracture is a common clinical situation for the orthopedist, we did not find any information in the literature that would allow safe decision-making on the best treatment for each fracture type. The aim of the present study was to investigate Brazilian orthopedists' opinions regarding the main aspects of ...

The Model for Calculating Pore Evaluation of Fractal Rock Body Under Hydraulic Fracturing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In general, the pore medium of rock has fractal characters. In order to calculate the change regulations of porosity and evaluation character of the rock under hydraulic fracturing accurately, in this paper, a new damage variable was defined to describe ...

Determination of stress state in deep subsea formation by combination of hydraulic fracturing in situ test and core analysis: A case study in the IODP Expedition 319

open access: yes, 2013
[1] In situ test of hydraulic fracturing (HF) provides the only way to observe in situ stress magnitudes directly. The maximum and minimum horizontal stresses, SHmax and Shmin, are determined from critical borehole pressures, i.e., the reopening pressure
