As an emerging waterless fracturing technology, supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO 2)
fracturing can reduce reservoir damage and dependence on water resources, and can also …

This review paper summarizes recent advances and challenges in the assessment of rock
behavior and performance in deep low-permeability and high-temperature geothermal …

Deep geothermal energy exploitation is primarily accomplished using an enhanced
geothermal system (EGS) to extract heat from hot dry rock (HDR). The use of hydraulic …

In this paper, a thermo-hydro-chemo-mechanical coupling peridynamic model of fractured
rock mass is proposed to simulate the fluid-driven crack and the characteristics of water …

Geothermal mining, nuclear waste disposal, and other projects involve rock fracturing under
the multiphysics effect. There is an urgent need for a numerical analysis tool that can …

The formation of a complex hydraulic fracture network in a naturally fractured reservoir is
strongly influenced by the distribution of pre-existing natural fractures and the interaction …

The mechanical behavior of shale exhibits pronounced time-dependent nonlinearity.
Existing phase-field models are inadequate for evaluating the fluid-driven fracture …

Hydraulic fracturing is one of the key technologies of shale gas extraction. Deeply
comprehending the distribution characteristics of hydraulic fracture networks in shale …

In this paper, a new fully coupled hydromechanical model in terms of bond-based
peridynamics is proposed to simulate the pressured and fluid-driven fracturing process in …

A modified Hopkinson pressure bar system with coupled static and dynamic disturbance is
used to study the failure characteristics of a granite specimen with a cavity. Different coupled …
