DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2018.07.040
Abstract: Abstract Lamina induced fractures (LF) are abundant in lacustrine formations, playing an important role for the tight oil resource exploration. Studies of controlling factors of the LF are still lacking, especially for the heterogeneous formations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/5.0243756
Abstract: The propagation of waterflood-induced fractures (WIFs) occurs during prolonged water injection and is influenced by the distribution and properties of natural fractures (NFs). Available numerical models rarely consider fracture activation and rupture in an integrated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1130/g46957.1
Abstract: Fractures within the earth control rock strength and fluid flow, but their dynamic nature is not well understood. As part of a series of underground chemical explosions in granite in Nevada, we collected and analyzed… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/en11082145
Abstract: Microfractures have great significance in the study of reservoir development because they are an effective reserving space and main contributor to permeability in a large amount of reservoirs. Usually, microfractures are divided into natural microfractures… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/en18184845
Abstract: Conventional hydraulic fracturing aims to minimize the loss of fracturing fluid, with the fluid serving solely to generate fractures, whereas the fracturing-flooding process involves the injection of an agent that facilitates fracture generation without flowing… read more here.
