... ABSTRACT Just like linguists decode what human beings say, seismologists decipher what faults or fractures say. Fracturing of rock samples in laboratory generates acoustic emission (AE) – elastic energy related to very small “earthquakes”. Acoustic emissions are of great importance...

... fracture geometry results in the uncertainty associated with hypocenter location. Laboratory acoustic emission measurements during hydraulic fracturing provide controlled conditions, better azimuthal coverage and understanding of the velocity model. We report the results of controlled laboratory hydraulic...

... stress applied on fracture propagation through acoustic emission studies. Focal mechanism analysis indicates that hydraulic fracturing is dominated by shear failure mechanism. Fracture direction seems to be affected by the magnitude of applied stress. Spatial and temporal distribution of hypocenters...

... as well. Different studies of microseismic and acoustic emission in rocks related to cyclic mechanical loading by applying stress or by fluid injections (e.g., Lockner, 1998; Zoback and Harjes, 1997; Zang et al., 2000; Baisch et al., 2002) indicate existence of the Kaiser effect. It is characterized...
