Height Effect on Interactions between the Hydraulic Fracture and Natural Fractures

Figure 15

Schematic diagrams of complex hydraulic and natural fracture joint system interactions in a 3D domain, where J1 (red region) with a 4 m formation thickness is along the orientation of , J2 (blue region) with a 2 m formation thickness is along the orientation of , and the overburden stress is along the height of this domain.
