Slip Backflow of Polymers in Elastic Fractures for Subsurface Heat Recovery

This research delves into the complexities of backflow phenomena in finite-length and flat-walled fractures with elastic walls, specifically focusing on power-law fluids, whose shear-thinning behavior distinguishes them from Newtonian fluids. We model the backflow process under the lubrication appro...
