CO2-Driven Hydraulic Fracturing Trajectories across a Preexisting Fracture

Defining the trajectory of hydraulic fractures crossing bedding planes and other fractures is a significant issue in determining the effectiveness of the stimulation. In this work, a damage evolution law is used to describe the initiation and propagation of the fracture. The model couples rock defor...
