Geomechanical aspects of fracture growth in a poroelastic, chemically reactive environment
Natural hydraulic fractures (NHFs) are fractures whose growths are driven by fluid loading. The fluid flow properties of the host rock have a primary, but hitherto little appreciated control on the NHF propagation rates. This study focuses on investigating the impacts of host rock fluid flow on the...
