Micrometer-scale pores and fractures in coals and the effects of tectonic deformation on permeability based on fractal theory

Micrometer-scale pore and fracture structures of coal seams are the crucial parameters in the case of enhanced coalbed methane (CBM) recovery as they determine permeability and productivity. A significant study has been made in fracture characteristics; however, the detailed structural and fractal c...
