Can a bi-lateral stress jump really arrest the height growth of a hydraulic fracture?
Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Carlo Peruzzo, Barnaby Padraig Fryer
In certain industrial applications, vertical growth of hydraulic fractures beyond a targeted formation of interest can cause economic loss and pose a risk to environmentally sensitive layers [1]. In addition, when micro hydraulic fracturing is used to meas ...
2023Ascent and movement of buoyant fluids in the lithosphere
Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Andreas Möri, Carlo Peruzzo
Hydraulic fractures are driven by an internal fluid pressure exceeding the minimum compressive stress, propagating in a direction perpendicular to the latter. This class of tensile fractures has gained interest over the last fifty years due to the developm ...
2023Gravitational effects on theemergence,propagation,andarrestofhydraulicfractures
Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Andreas Möri, Carlo Peruzzo, Dmitriy Garagash
Hydraulic fractures are driven by an internal fluid pressure exceeding the minimum compres- sive stress, propagating in a direction perpendicular to the latter. This class of tensile fractures has gained interest over the last fifty years due to the develo ...
2023Propagation of planar three-dimensional buoyant hydraulic fractures
Hydraulic fractures are driven by an internal fluid pressure exceeding the minimum compressive stress, propagating in a direction perpendicular to the latter. This class of tensile fractures has gained interest over the last fifty years due to the developm ...
EPFL2023Three-dimensional hydraulic fracture propagation in homogeneous and heterogeneous media
Hydraulic fractures are tensile fractures that occur in solid materials due to the natural intrusion or anthropogenic injection of a viscous fluid into a fracture channel. The deliberate creation of hydraulic fractures is part of an industrial technology h ...
EPFL2023Birth and ascent of buoyant hydraulic fractures
Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Andreas Möri
Hydraulic fracturing treatments are often used in petroleum and other industries to increase the permeability of rock formations and occur naturally as magmatic intrusions. The resulting fractures, propagating perpendicularly to the minimum in-situ stress ...
2023INFLUENCE OF VOIDS ON THICK DCB JOINT BEHAVIOR
Véronique Michaud, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Jialiang Fan
The influence of voids on the quasi-static Mode I fracture performance of thick adhesive joints was investigated in this article. Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) joints were manufactured with glass fiber reinforced epoxy adherends and SikaPower®-830 epoxy adh ...
2023Elongated hydraulic fracture emerging from layers of alternating fracture toughness
Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Carlo Peruzzo
Whether used to enhance the hydrocarbon production from low permeability rocks or to measure the minimum in-situ principal stress in rock formations, height growth of a hydraulic fracture above the formation of interest is a key metric for the design of su ...
2023Determining crack kinematics from imaged crack patterns
Katrin Beyer, Bryan German Pantoja Rosero, Amir Rezaie, Ketson Roberto Maximiano Dos Santos
Determining the relationship between the cause of damage and the subsequent structural behavior of infrastructure systems requires an accurate characterization of the propagation of cracks, which represents the evolution of the damage state. When no inform ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2022Experimental Investigation of Hydraulic Fracture Closure in a Porous Sandstone
Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Seyyedmaalek Momeni, Mohsen Talebkeikhah, Guanyi Lu
Depending on the type of fracture propagation regime when the injection stops, the closure of the fracture may occur exactly after the injection ceases, in the case where the fracturing process is dominated by fracture energy, or the fracture propagate for ...
