PyFrac: A planar 3D hydraulic fracture simulator
, 2020 Fluid driven fractures propagate in the upper earth crust either naturally or in response to engineered fluid injections. The quantitative prediction of their evolution is critical in order to better understand their dynamics as well as to optimize their

Hydraulic fracturing in cells and tissues: fracking meets cell biology [PDF]
, 2017 The animal body is fundamentally made of water. A small fraction of this water is freely flowing in blood and lymph, but most of it is trapped in hydrogels such as the extracellular matrix (ECM), the cytoskeleton, and chromatin.

Complementary hydro-mechanical coupled finite/discrete element and microseismic modelling to predict hydraulic fracture propagation in tight shale reservoirs [PDF]
, 2016 This paper presents a novel approach to predict the propagation of hydraulic fractures in tight shale reservoirs. Many hydraulic fracture modelling schemes assume that the fracture direction is pre-seeded in the problem domain discretization.

Propagation area evaluation of hydraulic fracture networks in shale gas reservoirs
Petroleum Exploration and Development, 2014 Based on hydraulic fracturing experiments in laboratory, the hydraulic fracture propagation in shale is analyzed, a method for evaluating the fracture propagation extent is proposed, and the effects of geological factors and engineering factors on ...

Nonuniversal conductivity exponents in continuum percolating Gaussian fractures [PDF]
, 2008 We study the electrical and hydraulic conductivity percolation exponents in a Gaussian fracture using the method proposed in Plouraboué et al. [Phys. Rev. E 73, 036305, 2006].

Analysis of the Influence of Hydraulic Fracturing Fluid Velocity on Fracture Propagation
Geofluids, 2023 To reveal the influence of fracturing fluid velocity on hydraulic fracturing fracture propagation, a hydraulic fracturing numerical model was established based on a coalbed methane (CBM) field in the northeast of China.

Reservoir-scale transdimensional fracture network inversion [PDF]
, 2019 The Waiwera aquifer hosts a structurally complex geothermal groundwater system, where a localized thermal anomaly feeds the thermal reservoir. The temperature anomaly is formed by the mixing of waters from three different sources: fresh cold groundwater,

Hydrothermal coupling in a self-affine rough fracture [PDF]
, 2010 International audienceThe influence of the multi-scale fracture roughness on the heat exchange when a cold fluid enters a fractured hot solid is studied numerically on the basis of the Stokes equation and in the limit of both hydro- and thermo ...
