Heat extraction from the geothermal reservoir is sensitive to reservoir properties, operating
parameters and coupling among various processes. Due to complex reservoir structure …

As a kind of clean renewable energy, the production and utilization of geothermal resources
can make a great contribution to optimizing the energy structure and energy conservation …

Probing source mechanisms of natural and induced earthquakes is a powerful tool to unveil
associated rupture kinematics. The source processes of failure and slip instability driven by …

The earthquake rupture process comprises complex interactions of stress, fracture, and
frictional properties. New machine learning methods demonstrate great potential to reveal …

Under mining conditions, rock masses can experience progressive damage that leads to
fracture initiation, propagation and coalescence and thus trigger fracture-controlled …

Paleostress Inversion Techniques: Methods and Applications for Tectonics is an ideal
reference for both academic and industry researchers in the Earth Sciences. The book …

We investigate source processes of fluid‐induced seismicity from The Geysers geothermal
reservoir in California to determine their relation with hydraulic operations and improve the …

Water inrush in mines has always been a major technical problem restricting the safe
production of mines with abundant water. Seepage channels formed by fractures in rock …

We investigate the source characteristics of picoseismicity (Mw<− 2) recorded during a
hydraulic fracturing in situ experiment performed in the underground Äspö Hard Rock …

The stability of surrounding rock is deteriorated due to the characteristics of Weak Interlayer
Zone (WIZ) in underground caverns. To address the deformation and small-scale collapse …
