Microseismic Event Characteristics Associated With The Spatial And Temporal Stages of Hydraulic Fracture Growth in Laboratory Experiments

There are uncertainties in the exact mechanisms that occur during hydraulic fracture growth and the interactions of hydraulic fractures with pre-existing fractures. In some cases fracture growth is seen to be purely tensile and in others a combination of tensile and shear mechanisms. In order to dev...
