Utah FORGE 5-2615: Shear Enhanced Permeability In a Granitoid Fracture - Presentation Slides

Publicly accessible License 

Provided here is a set of presentation slides detailing stress-dependent permeability in FORGE granitoid fractures and how fracture slip affects permeability. It outlines empirical correlations between permeability, stress, and fracture aperture, emphasizing that mechanically closed fractures retain some permeability. Moreover, the presentation explains that moderate shear slip can increase permeability by enhancing fracture networks, provided the slip displacement does not produce gouge materials that could clog the fractures.
