Modeling of hydraulic fracturing in rocks : a multiscale and fluid-solid coupling approach
This dissertation investigates the implications of the fluid flow on the behaviour of the particle-scale structure of a porous hard rock, based on the Discrete Element Method (DEM). This project is driven by the need to contribute towards a better understanding of the mechanical behaviour of porous...
