Differentiable Fracture Simulation

Introduction Fractures in the Earth's subsurface are crucial for operations such as geothermal energy extraction and CO2 storage. Changes to fluid pressure and rock temperature during operation may cause fractures to form and evolve, in turn affecting fluid flow. Understanding this interplay is e...
