Hydraulic Fracturing and Rock Mechanics / by Yu Zhao, Yongfa Zhang, Pengfei He.

This open access book is the first to consider the effect of non-uniform fluid pressure in hydraulic fractures. The book covers the key topics in the process of hydraulic fracture nucleation, growth, interaction and fracture network formation. Laboratory experiments and theoretical modeling are comb...
