This paper provides an overview and information on radon migration in the crust. In the past
several decades, numerous studies on radon migration have been published. However …

This study explores how the topology-based measure of connectivity of a three-dimensional
discrete fracture network (DFN) can be used to predict flow channelization, a commonly …

Conventional geological modelling methods are not capable to provide precise and
comprehensive model of the subsurface structures, when dealing with insufficient data …

A microseismic (MS) events barrier (MSEB) phenomenon was detected during infill well
fracturing of the Fuling shale gas reservoir. This phenomenon was evidenced by MS …

Understanding the fracture patterns of hydrocarbon reservoirs is vital in the Zagros area of
southwest of Iran as they are strongly affected by the collision of the Arabian and Iranian …

It is inadequate to study the shear failure anisotropy of shale in only 2D space. Aiming at a
3D analysis, a series of direct shear tests was conducted on Longmaxi shale with three …

In coal mining engineering, the mechanical properties of rocks in coal-bearing formations
are important for mining safety. In addition, lithological properties are among the most crucial …

A discrete fracture network (DFN) model based on non-parametric kernel density estimators
(KDE) and directional-linear statistics is developed. The model provides a characterization …

Fracture network is a crucial element to address in any model of the thermo-hydro-
mechanical behaviour of a reservoir rock. This study aims to provide quantified datasets and …

Geometric characterization of a geothermal reservoir's structures, and their relation to stress
field orientation, is vital for resource development. Subsurface structure and stress field …
