Controls of fault geometry and thermal stress on fault slip modes: Implications for permeability enhancement and injection-induced seismicity
Fluid pressurization within the fault zone generates increasing pore pressure and stress change which is liable to create shear and/or brittle fractures within the reservoir volumes and subsequently generating earthquakes of varying magnitudes. Here, we explored time-dependent fault weakening proces...
