Implicit representation of a single fracture with a continuum equivalent layer to simulate coupled processes
Fractures are pervasive in the subsurface, rendering both opportunities and challenges for geo- engineering applications since they provide permeable pathways for energy and mass transport. In particular, fractures dominate fluid flow, solute transport, and mechanical deformation, albeit they occupy a very small volume of a subsurface formation.

Summary: | Fractures are pervasive in the subsurface, rendering both opportunities and challenges for geo-
engineering applications since they provide permeable pathways for energy and mass transport.
In particular, fractures dominate fluid flow, solute transport, and mechanical deformation, albeit
they occupy a very small volume of a subsurface formation. |
