Abstract
The fracture geometric characteristics (FGC) have considerable influence on fluid flow in the fractured rock mass. The present work took experimental approaches to investigate the quantitative relationship between the FGC of a rough-walled fracture (RWF) and its hydraulic properties, particularly for the deformable fractures subjected to applied stresses. Taking into account the complexity of the FGC in realistic practice, the FGC studied in...
