Figure 16From: Mechanical and hydraulic behavior of a rock fracture under shear deformationResults of simulation for flow through the fracture. The dark blue particles fill the pore inside the fracture at the beginning, and then red particles are injected into the fracture. Fluid flows into the fracture from below. The red particles flow to avoid the narrow aperture parts and the domains that disrupt fluid flow are found in a wide area.Back to article page
