Modeling Simultaneous Multiple Fracturing Using the Combined Finite-Discrete Element Method

Simultaneous multiple fracturing is a key technology to facilitate the production of shale oil/gas. When multiple hydraulic fractures propagate simultaneously, there is an interaction effect among these propagating hydraulic fractures, known as the stress-shadow effect, which has a significant impac...
