A Coupled Extended Finite Element–Cohesive Zone Model for Hydraulic Fracture Propagation Under Poroelastic Effects Across Different Propagation Regimes

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Numerical simulation of hydraulic fracturing remains challenging due to the strong coupling between geomechanics and fluid flow when modelling multiple physical mechanisms of rock deformation, fracture evolution and fluid leak‐off. This study develops a coupled hydraulic fracture propagation framework that combines the extended finite element ...

A Coupled Chemohydraulic Model of a Hydration Experiment

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents a model for the hydration of periclase into brucite during water infiltration into a dry, pure periclase core. The hydration process proceeds in two stages. In Phase I, an infiltration front advances through the core while simultaneously triggering the hydration reaction.

Thermo‐Hydrodynamic Processes of Microparticles in Fractures: A CFD–DEM Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Controlling fracture permeability plays a critical role in subsurface energy applications, particularly in geothermal energy production and enhanced carbon sequestration, where regulating fluid flow is essential. The use of microcapsules has become a promising solution to enhance fracture permeability by providing a controlled sealing ...

Numerical Modeling of Geological Fault Reactivation Using Sequential Coupling Strategies

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interaction between fluid flow and mechanical deformation in fault zones can lead to processes of fault reactivation, triggering potential geomechanical problems such as seismicity, well collapse, fluid migration to shallower layers, and aggravated surface subsidence.

Semi‐Analytical Solution of Time‐Harmonic Soil–Pile Interaction Using Love Numbers in Transversely Isotropic and Layered Half‐Spaces

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An efficient semi‐analytical approach based on the Fourier–Bessel series (FBS) system of vector functions and the stiffness matrix method is proposed to study the dynamic response of axially loaded piles embedded in transversely isotropic (TI) layered soil.

Crisis Preparation, Capacity Building, and Community Resilience: Lessons From Maui

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2023 Maui wildfires provide a unique context to explore the impact of nonprofit crisis networks taking a proactive role in community crisis response, leveraging resources, expertise, and networks. The Hawaiʻi Community Foundation (HCF) has been a key player in Maui's local response, providing critical support, mobilizing volunteers, and ...
