Using Cohesive Zone Model to Simulate the Hydraulic Fracture Interaction with Natural Fracture in Poro-Viscoelastic Formation
Hydraulic fracturing is a widely used production stimulation technology for conventional and unconventional reservoirs. The cohesive element is used to explain the tip fracture process. In this paper, the cohesive zone model was used to simulate hydraulic fracture initiation and propagation at the s...
