Discrete element modeling of rock deformation, fracture network development and permeability evolution under hydraulic stimulation [electronic resource]

Key challenges associated with the EGS reservoir development include the ability to reliably predict hydraulic fracturing and the deformation of natural fractures as well as estimating permeability evolution of the fracture network with time. We have developed a physics-based rock deformation and fr...
