Abstract:After hydraulic fracturing, the geometric characteristics of rock morphology is a crucial means for evaluating the effectiveness of fracture stimulation in enhancing production. In order to quantitatively analyze the surface undulations of marine and continental shale morphology further following hydraulic fracturing, a method for calculating the three-dimensional fractal dimension of fracture surfaces based on optical scanning technology is proposed. This method involves the acquisition of point cloud data us… Show more
