Mathematical Modeling of Hydraulic Fracture Formation and Cleaning Processes

Mathematical Modeling of Hydraulic Fracture Formation and Cleaning Processes

The effectiveness of the hydraulic fracturing procedure is crucially dependent on the stage of fracture planning and design. Forecasting fracture behavior in rock formations characterized by non-uniform toughness is a serious challenge. In the present paper, a planar-3D model considering the rock’s...
