Spontaneous rupture on natural fractures and seismic radiation during hydraulic fracturing treatments

Abstract We extend spontaneous rupture models in earthquake source studies to analyze fluid injection problems. We perform these analyses on a 2‐D fracture network model with a propagating hydraulic fracture (HF) and three sets of natural fractures (NFs). We find that it is difficult for NFs that ar...
