Modeling the effect of fracture orientation on porus media anisotropy using the T-matrix method [PDF]
Нефтегазовая геология: Теория и практика, 2022 Fracture orientation is crucial in porous media anisotropy. In the current study we investigate the role of fracture orientation based on a novel Rock Physics method - the T-matrix approach. This method allows us to study the fracture porosity, shape and
