Displacement Discontinuity Analysis of the Effects of Various Hydraulic Fracturing Parameters on the Crack Opening Displacement (COD)
The combination of horizontal drilling along with hydraulic fracturing has significantly improved the production of hydrocarbon reservoirs and made it possible to extract the relatively impermeable and uneconomical reservoirs. The production rate of oil and gas wells increases proportional to hydraulic fracture aperture or crack opening displacement (COD). This is an important parameter i...
متن کاملHVEM/AFM Observation of Hinge-Type Plastic Zones Associated with Cracks in Silicon Crystals
Dislocation structures developed in hinge-type plastic zones associated with cracks in silicon crystals have been studied using a high voltage electron microscope (HVEM). Fine slip bands due to those dislocations have been also examined by an atomic force microscope (AFM). {100} and {110} cracks were introduced into {110} silicon wafers at room temperature by Vickers indentation method. The tem...
متن کاملValidation of Crack Interaction Limit Model for Parallel Edge Cracks Using Two-dimensional Finite Element Analysis
Shielding interaction effects of two parallel edge cracks in finite thickness plates subjected to remote tension load is analyzed using a developed finite element analysis program. In the present study, the crack interaction limit is evaluated based on the fitness of service (FFS) code, and focus is given to the weak crack interaction region as the crack interval exceeds the length of cracks (b...
متن کاملModeling of fatigue crack closure in inclined and deflected cracks
A 2-dimensional, elastic-plastic finite element model has been developed to simulate plasticity induced crack closure in slanted and deflected cracks growing outside the small scale yielding (SSY) regime. The finite element model allows for contact between deformable surfaces to capture the complex contact interaction between the crack faces. Coulomb’s friction law has been used to model fricti...
متن کاملNucleation and propagation of cracks due to a thermal shock with a cohesive crack model
This paper studies the initiation of cohesive cracks in the thermal shock problem through a variational analysis. A two-dimensional semi-infinite slab with an imposed temperature drop on its free surface is considered. Assuming that cracks are periodically distributed and orthogonal to the surface, at short times we show that the optimum is a distribution of infinitely close cohesive cracks. Th...
