Characteristics of the Fracture Process Zone for Reservoir Rock with Various Heterogeneity

Characteristics of the Fracture Process Zone for Reservoir Rock with Various Heterogeneity

Hydraulic fracturing for oil-gas and geothermal reservoir stimulation is closely related to the propagation of Mode I crack. Nonlinear deformation due to rock heterogeneity occurs at such crack tips, which causes the fracture process zone (FPZ) to form before the crack propagates unsteadily. However...
