Numerical study failure characteristics of natural fracture under induced stress

Hydraulic fracturing is an effective method for developing oil and gas in unconventional reservoirs. The openings of natural fractures directly affect the complexity of the fracture body. The failure characteristics of natural fractures are critical factors in determining their activation by hydraul...
