Numerical Investigations on the Effect of Fracture Length Distribution on the Representative Elementary Volume of 3D Discrete Fracture Networks

Determination of the representative elementary volume (REV) of fractured rock masses based on equivalent permeability (K) is significantly dependent on the geometric characteristics of fractures. In this work, a series of numerical simulations were performed to analyze the relationship between geome...
