Multi-porous extension of anisotropic poroelasticity: linkage with micromechanics

Filip P. Adamus, David Healy, Philip G. Meredith +1

We attempt to formalise the relationship between the poroelasticity theory and the effective medium theory of micromechanics. The assumptions of these two approaches vary, but both…

Multi-porous extension of anisotropic poroelasticity: consolidation and related coefficients

Filip P. Adamus, David Healy, Philip G. Meredith +2

We propose the generalisation of the anisotropic poroelasticity theory. At a large scale, a medium is viewed as quasi-static, which is the original assumption of Biot. At a smaller…

Off-fault damage characterisation during and after experimental quasi-static and dynamic rupture in crustal rock from laboratory P-wave tomography and microstructures

Franciscus M. Aben, Nicolas Brantut, Thomas M. Mitchell

Elastic strain energy released during shear failure in rock is partially spent as fracture energy to propagate the rupture further. is dissipated within the rupture tip pro…

Fault reactivation by fluid injection: Controls from stress state and injection rate

François. X. Passelègue, Nicolas Brantut, Thomas M. Mitchell

We studied the influence of stress state and fluid injection rate on the reactivation of faults. We conducted experiments on a saw-cut Westerly granite sample under triaxial stress…

Assessing the efficiency of thermal pressurisation using natural pseudotachylyte-bearing rocks

Nicolas Brantut, Thomas M. Mitchell

The efficiency of thermal pressurisation as a dynamic weakening mechanism relies on the thermal and hydraulic properties of the rocks forming the fault core. Here, we assess the ef…
