Acceleration methods for the planar 3D ILSA hydraulic fracturing model
V. I. Shukalo, A. V. Valov, A. N. Baykin
Planar 3D models of hydraulic fracturing provide a practical balance between models with restrictive geometric assumptions and fully 3D simulators, capturing fractures with arbitra…

On the layer crossing problem for a semi-infinite hydraulic fracture
A. V. Valov, E. V. Dontsov
This paper analyses the problem of a semi-infinite fluid-driven fracture propagating through multiple stress layers in a permeable elastic medium. Such a problem represents the tip…
