Different from the conventional oil reservoirs, the primary storage space of shale is
micro/nano pore networks. Moreover, the multiscale and multi-minerals characteristics of …

Field data have shown the decline of fracture conductivity during reservoir depletion. In
addition, refracturing and infill drilling have recently gained much attention as efficient …

In this study, we present an efficient numerical solution for studying hydraulic fracturing
under coupled thermal–hydraulic conditions in an elastic–plastic porous medium. The …

Compared with conventional reservoirs, gas flow in shale formation is affected by additional
nonlinear coupled processes such as matrix/fracture deformations. We present a fully …

In fractured natural formations, the equations governing fluid flow and geomechanics are
strongly coupled. Hydrodynamical properties depend on the mechanical configuration, and …

The boost of shale gas production in the last decade has reformed worldwide energy
structure. The macroscale modeling of shale gas production becomes particularly important …

The successful utilization of hot dry rock is contingent upon the implementation of the
development of the enhanced geothermal system (EGS) to create a complex fracture …

离散缝网的表征与模拟是目前国内外研究的热点. 在非常规油气开发过程中,
由于地应力场的存在会对裂缝的流动属性产生显著影响, 若将裂缝视为静态对象 …

Deformable fractured porous media appear in many geoscience applications. While the
extended finite element method (XFEM) has been successfully developed within the …

Transient flow around hydraulic fractures is an important topic in the study of tight reservoirs.
In this work, the Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (EDFM) is combined with nested local …
