Tectonic interpretation of the connectivity of a multiscale fracture system in limestone [PDF]
This paper studies the statistics and tectonism of a multiscale natural fracture system in limestone. The fracture network exhibits a self‐similar characteristic with a correlation between its power law length exponent a and fractal dimension D, i.e., a ≈
