Multiphysics Lattice Discrete Particle Modeling (M-LDPM) for the Simulation of Shale Fracture Permeability
Weixin Li, Xinwei Zhou, J. William Carey +2
A three-dimensional Multiphysics Lattice Discrete Particle Model (M-LDPM) framework is formulated to investigate the fracture permeability behavior of shale. The framework features…
