Laboratory Simulation of Reservoir-induced Seismicity

Pore pressure exists ubiquitously in the Earth’s subsurface and very often exhibits a cyclic loading on pre-existing faults due to seasonal and tidal changes, as well as the impoundment and discharge of surface reservoirs. The effect of oscillating pore pressure on induced seismicity is not fully un...
