Fitting of anisotropic strength parameters of laminated shale and its influence on wellbore instability by Jinyou Zhang, Xiaobo Liu, Hongge Jia, Xuejia Du, Zhongmin Wang, Guoqiang Pan, Mingming Zhang

“…The results show that the Pariseau criterion can distinguish the strength difference between vertical and horizontal bedding, but the prediction error is large. In contrast, the single plane of weakness model (SPW) and patchy plane of weakness model (PPW) criteria cannot distinguish the strength difference between vertical and horizontal bedding but have better predictive performance for the strength during shear slip failure along the bedding plane. …”
