This work introduces 3D lattice modeling of hydraulic fracturing initiation and near-wellbore
propagation for different perforation models, including spiral perforation, oriented perforation …

A multi-scale numerical investigation for fault slip and casing deformation is carried out by
combining a large-scale distinct element model to simulate the hydraulic fracturing and fault …

Hydraulic fracture (HF) network at the meso-macro scale is crucial in the development of
coalbed methane contained in coal seams with low permeability. The characterization of a …

Geotechnical instability and failure are closely related to the hydro-mechanical coupled
behavior of fractured rocks, and the existing studies often regard the fracture seepage as …

The analysis of crack growth on a rock with pre-existing flaws is mostly carried out in open
flaw configurations whereas limited study can be found for narrow flaw configurations …

In this paper, the DDM numerical method is used to calculate the initiation pressure and
initiation length of the circular wellbore, or the further elongated and non-elongated 'dog …

During the last two decades, the oil and gas industry started production from unconventional
