A review on phase-field modeling of hydraulic fracturing

Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 2021
Motivated by the successful implementation of the phase-field method (PFM) to simulate complicated fracture patterns at moderate computational costs in solid materials, many research groups have started since 2012 applying the PFM to model hydraulic ...

A Critical Review of the Physicochemical Impacts of Water Chemistry on Shale in Hydraulic Fracturing Systems.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2021
Hydraulic fracturing of unconventional hydrocarbon resources involves the sequential injection of a high-pressure, particle-laden fluid with varying pH's to make commercial production viable in low permeability rocks.

Numerical simulation of hydraulic fracturing process in a naturally fractured reservoir based on a discrete fracture network model

Journal of Structural Geology, 2021
This research presents a simulation of hydraulic fracturing process in a naturally fractured reservoir based on a discrete fracture network (DFN) model coupling different kinds of pre-existing discontinuities.

Anisotropic failure behaviour and breakdown pressure interpretation of hydraulic fracturing experiments on shale

, 2021
Shales with a laminated structure typically exhibit inherent anisotropy and strong brittleness , resulting in complex failure patterns and fracture evolution during hydraulic fracturing .

A critical review of common models in hydraulic-fracturing simulation: A practical guide for practitioners

, 2021
In laminated, anisotropic unconventional rocks (ultra-tight shale, tight gas, coal seam, and so forth), the true hydraulic-fracturing mode is a complex, mixed-mode process.

An integrated approach to characterize hydraulic fracturing-induced seismicity in shale reservoirs

, 2021
There has been a remarkable increase in induced seismicity in Western Canada and the majority of these events can be related to hydraulic fracturing operations applied to develop unconventional reservoirs.

Exploring the influence of heterogeneity on hydraulic fracturing based on the combined finite–discrete method

Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 2021
Hydraulic fracture propagation is known to be influenced by heterogeneity; therefore, the influence of different heterogeneity characteristics on the propagation must be studied.

Study on the cracking mechanism of hydraulic and supercritical CO2 fracturing in hot dry rock under thermal stress

, 2021
To realize the effective extraction of high-temperature thermal energy in enhanced geothermal system (EGS), it is necessary to explore how to efficiently construct fracture network in hot dry rock (HDR).

Hydraulic fracturing: Computational modelling

Revue européenne de génie civil, 2006
This paper presents an efficient algorithm for modelling hydraulic fracturing based on the finite element method. The algorithm is employed for modelling the different coupled non-linear processes that are involved in the problem of hydraulic fracturing.
