Hydraulic fracture propagation through geological discontinuities.
Hydraulic fracturing is a stimulation technique widely used to enhance hydrocarbon production and geothermal energy extraction. Other applications include waste disposal and cave inducement and preconditioning of ore for mining. Rocks are naturally fractured and therefore the little-understood probl...
