主讲内容简介:

Human-induced earthquake is related to large volumes of fluid injection in underground including wasted water, hot steam, CO2, N2, foams, and their mixtures. These injected fluids can potentially generate new fractures and/or reactivate pre-existing faults/cleats. Fluid-rock interaction is an important yet challenging issue in geomechanics, ranging from seismic events to hydraulic fracturing. In this talk, preliminary lab results of fluids injection induced fault sliding will be discussed, Various fluids (helium, carbon dioxide, water, and moisturized methane) were injected into coal to investigate the dynamic characteristics of friction coefficients and permeability evolution during faulting. The friction strength of rock fracture significantly dropped after injecting sorbing fluids, which could lead to fault reactivation at a low pore pressure. Fracture permeability during sliding is sensitive to the softening effect of injected fluids. The rate-state-friction parameters with various sliding speeds indicated a continuous friction increase with sliding distance. These results can provide improved understanding of geohazards prevention and prediction.
