Phase field model of fluid-driven fracture in elastic media: Immersed-fracture formulation and validation with analytical solutions

Phase field model of fluid-driven fracture in elastic media: Immersed-fracture formulation and validation with analytical solutions

Propagation of fluid-driven fractures plays an important role in natural and engineering processes, including transport of magma in the lithosphere, geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide, and oil and gas recovery from low-permeability formations, among many others. The simulation of fracture prop...
