Abstract: Systems and methods for simulating subterranean regions having multi-scale, complex fracture geometries. Non-intrusive embedded discrete fracture modeling formulations are applied in conjunction with commercial or in-house simulators to efficiently and accurately model subsurface characteristics including temperature profiles in regions having complex hydraulic fractures, complex natural fractures, or a combination of both.

Abstract: Systems and methods for simulating subterranean regions having multi-scale fracture geometries. Non-intrusive embedded discrete fracture modeling formulations are applied in conjunction with commercial simulators to efficiently and accurately model subsurface transient flow characteristics in regions having complex hydraulic fractures, complex natural fractures, or a combination of both, and geometries including corner point grids.

Abstract: Techniques for calibration of a simulation of a subterranean region having complex fracture geometries. Calibration of indeterministic subsurface discrete fracture network models is performed via non-intrusive embedded discrete fracture modeling formulations applied in conjunction with well testing interpretation and numerical simulation. Subterranean fracture networks are characterized dynamically by embedded discrete fracture modeling to accurately and efficiently determine an optimal fracture model.

Abstract: A fabricated self-resilient energy-dissipation double-steel-plate slotted shear wall structure includes steel columns, H-shaped steel beams and a shear wall assembly. The shear wall assembly includes left and right groups of slotted wall plates and is connected with flanges of the H-shaped steel beams through angle steel. Connecting ring plate assemblies are fixed to upper and lower ends of each steel column and each comprise an outer ring plate, an inner ring plate and a short side plate. A long side plate is fixedly arranged on each steel column tube and is connected with one slotted wall plate through a plurality of self-locking hasps. A plurality of pre-stressed steel strands are arranged on two sides of each long side plate.
