Elements of Poro-Elasticity for Reservoir Engineering Éléments de poro-élasticité pour l'ingénierie de réservoirs

Poro-elasticity is introduced by establishing the parallel between the equations of elastic solid mechanics and the equations describing the single-phase flow of a fluid in a porous medium. We then develop a number of practical applications of poro-elasticity for reservoir engineering. In conclusion...
