SH Wave Scattering from Fractures using Boundary Element Method with Linear Slip Boundary Condition
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011)A boundary element method (BEM) combined with a linear slip boundary condition is proposed to calculate SH wave scattering from fractures. The linear slip boundary condition was proposed by Schoenberg (1980) to model elastic ... -
Simulating Shear Wave Propagation in Two-Dimensional Fractured Heterogeneous Media by Coupling Boundary Element and Finite Difference Methods
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011)A hybrid method to model the shear wave (SH) scattering from 2D fractures embedded in a heterogeneous medium is developed by coupling Boundary Element Method (BEM) and Finite Different Method (FDM) in the frequency domain. ... -
Estimation of fracture compliance from tubewaves generated at a fracture intersecting a borehole
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011)Understanding fracture compliance is important for characterizing fracture networks and for inferring fluid flow in the subsurface. In an attempt to estimate fracture compliance in the field, we developed a new model to ...
