Fully three-dimensional propagation model of horizontal borehole hydraulic fractures in strata under the effect of bedding planes
The bedding plane effect will occur when hydraulic fractures propagate to the bedding plane in sedimentary strata, resulting in the “≠,” “工,” or “/” shaped fracture morphology. Based on previous physical experiments results, this article analyzed the mecroscopic propagation mechanism of tensile fail...
