Hydraulic fracturing (HF) is a technique that is used for extracting petroleum resources from
impermeable host rocks. In this process, fluid injected under high pressure causes fractures …

Geothermal energy is a green source of power that could play an important role in climate‐
conscious energy portfolios; enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) have the potential to …

Induced seismicity associated with fluid injection into underground formations jeopardizes
the sustainable utilization of the subsurface. Understanding the fault behavior is the key to …

In enhanced geothermal systems (EGS), the natural permeability of deep rocks is normally
not high enough and needs to be increased. Permeability increase can be achieved through …

Deformation and fracturing of the rock mass are heavily affected by complex thermal-
hydraulic-mechanical (THM) processes in the subsurface environment. This study develops …

An unusual increase in seismicity rate near the development and production sites of
unconventional energy (eg, natural gas and geothermal fluids) has been attributed to …

Understanding the relation between injection‐induced seismic moment release and
operational parameters is crucial for early identification of possible seismic hazards …

One controversial issue associated with enhanced geothermal systems is induced
seismicity, which limits their broader application. As induced seismicity has a strong …

Coupled poroelastic stressing and pore-pressure accumulation along pre-existing faults in
deep basement contribute to recent occurrence of seismic events at subsurface energy …

The ability to control induced seismicity in energy technologies such as geothermal heat and
shale gas is an important factor in improving the safety and reducing the seismic hazard of …
