The discrete fracture networks (DFN) have become indispensable tools for geomechanical
modelling of jointed rock masses. The technology creates a three-dimensional (3D) …

Deep geothermal reservoirs have great potential for exploitation and are characterized by
high temperatures, high stress, and strong heterogeneity. However, these reservoirs contain …

Energy extraction from the deep subsurface requires engineering using a working fluid
circulation in well doublet. This study developed a field-scale hydro-thermal model to …

Well placement in a given geological setting for a fractured geothermal reservoir is
necessary for enhanced geothermal operations. High computational cost associated with …

Fractures and caves are the main flow and storage channels for the karst geothermal
reservoirs, and the water-rock reaction within them significantly affects the thermal …

Numerical modeling for geothermal reservoir engineering is a crucial process to evaluate
the performance of the reservoir and to develop strategies for the future development. The …

Fracture network is a crucial element to address in any model of the thermo-hydro-
mechanical behaviour of a reservoir rock. This study aims to provide quantified datasets and …
