Solving three-dimensional problems in natural and hydraulic fracture development : insight from displacement discontinuity modeling
Although many fracture models are based on two-dimensional plane strain approximations, accurately predicting fracture propagation geometry requires accounting for the three-dimensional aspects of fractures. In this study, we implemented 3-D displacement discontinuity (DD) boundary element modeling...
