Abstract: Abstract A pore pressure cohesive zone method (PCZM) is proposed to simulate the complex hydraulic fracturing process in a permeable poroelastic medium. A shared node scheme of the cohesive elements is developed to consider the… read more here.

Abstract: In this paper, we propose a hydromechanical model to simulate hydraulic fracture propagation in deep shale formations. The Drucker-Prager plasticity theory, Darcy’s law, Reynolds lubrication theory, and Kirchoff’s laws are adopted to describe the plastic… read more here.
