... module, computer, and power supply. The experimental program for direct simple shear tests consists of two main parts: the consolidation and shearing stages. Initially, the consolidation stage commenced when normal stress was applied. Depending on the vertical pressure of interest for each test run...

... rapidly. The physical properties of the fault, such as its frictional behavior, and the normal stress acting on it are known to strongly influence this nucleation process (Dieterich, 1978; Okubo and Dieterich, 1984; Ohnaka and Shen, 1999). Reported theoretical and numerical efforts aim to quantitatively...

... ABSTRACT The permeability evolution of natural fractures during shearing is one of the critical issues in enhanced geothermal system (EGS). In this study, a series of numerical simulations of shear-flow tests under different normal stresses were carried out to investigate the permeability...

Furthermore, the results confirm that the ratio of dynamic to static shear strengths vary between approximately 2 and 3 in the range of normal stresses used in the tests.
