Simulation of Hydraulic Fracturing Using Different Mesh Types Based on Zero Thickness Cohesive Element
Hydraulic fracturing is a significant technique in petroleum engineering to enhance the production of shale gas or shale oil reservoir. The process of hydraulic fracturing is extremely complicated, referring to the deformation of solid formation, fluid flowing in the crack channel, and coupling the...
