A variety of novel techniques to ensure efficiency and realistic model behavior are implemented, and tested.  The simulation methodology can also be used as an efficient method for directly solving quasistatic fracture contact problems.  Results show how stresses induced by fracture deformation during stimulation directly impact the mechanism of propagation and the resulting fracture network.SpringerBriefs in Earth Sciences,2191-5369Hydraulic fracturingComputer simulationGeothermal engineeringMathematical modelsHeatTransmissionMathematical modelsHydraulic fracturingComputer simulation.Geothermal engineeringMathematical models.HeatTransmissionMathematical models.627627.015118McClure Mark W1424694Horne Roland N1757069MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910741178203321Discrete fracture network modeling of hydraulic stimulation4194715UNINA
