Investigation of Injection-induced Seismicity Using a Coupled Fluid Flow and Rate/state Friction Model
This paper describes a numerical investigation of seismicity induced during injection into a single, isolated fracture. A model was developed and used that couples (1) fluid flow and (2) rate and state friction. Rate and state friction theory describes how friction on a fault depends on both sliding velocity and past sliding history. Rate and state friction is used widely in earthquake modeling...
متن کاملCoupled fluid flow and geomechanical deformation modeling
Accurate prediction of reservoir production in structurally weak geologic areas requires both mechanical deformation and fluid flow modeling. Loose staggered-in-time coupling of two independent flow and mechanics simulators captures much of the complex physics at a substantially reduced cost. Two 3-D finite element simulators—Integrated Parallel Accurate Reservoir Simulator (IPARS) for flow and...
متن کاملAnalysis of fluid injection-induced fault reactivation and seismic slip in geothermal reservoirs
We explore the issue of fault reactivation induced in enhanced geothermal systems by fluid injection. Specifically, we investigate the role of late stage activation by thermal drawdown. A Thermal-Hydrological-Mechanical simulator incorporating a ubiquitous joint constitutive model is used to systematically simulate the seismic slip of an embedded critically stressed strike-slip fault. We examin...
متن کاملAn Alternating Direction Implicit Method for Modeling of Fluid Flow
This research includes of the numerical modeling of fluids in two-dimensional cavity. The cavity flow is an important theoretical problem. In this research, modeling was carried out based on an alternating direction implicit via Vorticity-Stream function formulation. It evaluates different Reynolds numbers and grid sizes. Therefore, for the flow field analysis and prove of the ability of the sc...
متن کاملViscous Fluid Flow-Induced Nonlocal Nonlinear Vibration of Embedded DWBNNTs
In this article, electro-thermo nonlocal nonlinear vibration and instability of viscous-fluid-conveying double–walled boron nitride nanotubes (DWBNNTs) embedded on Pasternak foundation are investigated. The DWBNNT is simulated as a Timoshenko beam (TB) which includes rotary inertia and transverse shear deformation in the formulation. Considering electro-mechanical coupling, the nonlinear govern...
