The 3D Finite Element Program FRACTure was developed with the specific aim of studying the coupling of interactive mechanisms in geoscience and in particular those relevant to the long term behaviour of a Hot Dry Rock reservoir. The flexible modular structure facilitates the addition of further processes and elements to the existing library and the handling of linear and non-linear constitutive laws...
The coupled hydro-thermo-mechanical response of a fractured media to forced fluid flow in a simple Hot-Dry-Rock (HDR) system is investigated. The geometry, a single fracture in a 2D matrix, was chosen in order to better understand the relevant processes for the long term behaviour of HDR reservoir. Linear elastic effects of temperature and pore pressure perturbations on stress in the solid matrix...
