Sentence examples for modelling of fault from inspiring English sources
Geomechanical modelling of fault stability is an integral part of Australia's GEODISC research program to ensure the safe storage of carbon dioxide in subsurface reservoirs.
Hence, determination of in situ stresses and modelling of fault stability are essential prerequisites for the safe engineering of subsurface CO2 injection and the modelling of storage capacity.
In depleted oil and gas fields, modelling of fault and rock stability needs to incorporate changes of the pre-production stresses that were induced by hydrocarbon production and associated pore pressure depletion.
The modelling of fault ruptures includes two aspects: (1) An individual fault can be triggered by pressure changes associated with fluid injection.
This study builds on the current understanding through vigorous numerical modelling of fault-structure system under seismic excitation.
We propose a conceptual model of fault nucleation and development.
This supershear mechanism differentiates barrier and asperity models of fault heterogeneity, which previously have been regarded as indistinguishable.
The results may also help to further constrain models of fault evolution.
From models of faulting and magma emplacement, Jean-Arthur and his colleagues showed that the forces shaping sea-floor topography act as a low-pass filter on time scales less than 100,000 years and that the variation in the wavelength of sea-floor topography with spreading rate is best matched by a model of fault growth and abandonment under a constant rate of magma supply.
We conducted three-dimensional coupled fluid-flow and geomechanical modeling of fault activation and seismicity associated with hydraulic fracturing stimulation of a shale-gas reservoir.
In this paper, stochastic models of fault damage zones are generated by incorporating the statistical properties of fault populations (power law length and throw distributions, orientation distribution) and different spatial distributions, including randomly located, simple and hierarchical clustering of faults.
