Analysis of Hydraulic Fracture Propagation Behavior Using a Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical Coupled Model
Hydraulic fracturing is a key reservoir stimulation technology for enhancing hydrocarbon recovery from unconventional reservoirs. However, fracture initiation and propagation are governed by complex thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) coupling processes, which strongly influence fracture geometry, propagation dynamics, and o...
