Effects of Periodic Normal Stress Oscillations on Frictional Properties of Simulated Natural Fault Gouges Under In Situ P‐T Conditions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract Induced earthquakes are occasionally associated with stress oscillations resulting from periodic industrial activities. Yet, the effects of stress oscillations on fault friction under realistic subsurface conditions are not fully clear. We conducted normal stress oscillations experiments using simulated fault gouges derived from the major ...

Characterization of mechanical properties of shale constituent minerals using phase‐identified nanoindentation

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 542-558, 4 February 2025.
Abstract Characterization of mechanical properties of shale constituent minerals (viz., the mechanical genes of shale) has been challenging but of great significance for engineering applications in shale formations. In this study, a phase‐identified nanoindentation is proposed to decode the mechanical genes of shale using a large nanomechanical dataset.

Multi‐Criterion Stability Evaluation and Surface Boundary Method for Slopes

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Slope failure generally starts from a single point, where a local failure surface forms, and then progresses to the overall failure. Based on this behavior, this paper proposes a multi‐criterion stability evaluation approach for describing progressive failure process of slope.

Study on the Mechanical Properties and Fracturing Damage Process of Shale With Preexisting Fractures Under Fluid–Solid Coupling Effects

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
To investigate the influence of fractures on the hydraulic fracturing extraction of shale gas, this study conducted a fluid–solid coupling analysis of shale with preexisting fractures. Initially, the mineral composition and the distribution of microfractures and pores in the shale were analyzed using X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and argon ion scanning ...

NMR‐Based Quantitative Characterization of Water Imbibition in Deep Shale Rocks Under Different Pressures and Temperatures

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Unconventional tight/shale gas reservoirs have gained significant attention in the energy sector. The importance of temperature and pressure in shale imbibition lies in their profound influence on the kinetics, rate, and ultimate amount of water uptake, which directly impacts the efficiency of gas production.
