Abstract: This paper is concerned with the analysis of a lowviscosity fluid injection into a preexisting, fingerlike crack within a linear elastic, permeable rock, and of the conditions leading to the onset of the fracture propagation ...

Abstract: This paper studies the transient pressurization of a preexisting, fingerlike crack in a poroelastic, permeable rock due to a fluid injection, the problem previously considered in the nonporoelastic reservoir context in the ...
