Single-Well Pore Pressure Preconditioning for Enhanced Geothermal System Stimulation
Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Mathias Alexandre David Lebihain, Barnaby Padraig Fryer
The stress state is an important parameter in terms of both earthquake nucleation and rupture. Here, a new stimulation technique is proposed for Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGSs), which have previously been burdened with a number of high-profile incidence ...
AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION2023Three-dimensional fluid-driven frictional ruptures: theory and applications
Fluid-driven frictional ruptures are important in a broad range of subsurface engineering technologies and natural earthquake-related phenomena. Some examples of subsurface operations where borehole fluid injections can induce frictional slip are deep geot ...
EPFL2023Influence of Viscous Lubricant on Nucleation and Propagation of Frictional Ruptures
Marie Estelle Solange Violay, François Xavier Thibault Passelègue, Federica Paglialunga
Fluids are pervasive in the Earth's crust and saturate fractures and faults. The combination of fluids and gouge layers developing along faults can generate fluids of different viscosities. Such viscous fluids were found to influence the reactivation, fric ...
AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION2023cRacklet: a spectral boundary integral method library for interfacial rupture simulation
Jean-François Molinari, Thibault Didier Roch, Fabian Barras
The study of dynamically propagating rupture along interfaces is of prime importance in various fields and system sizes, including tribology (nm to m), engineering (mm to m) and geophysics (m to km) (Armstrong-Hélouvry et al., 1994; Ben-Zion, 2008; Vanossi ...
