Porous Rock Failure Mechanics: Hydraulic Fracturing, Drilling and Structural Engineering focuses on the fracture mechanics of porous rocks and modern simulation techniques for progressive quasi-static and dynamic fractures. The topics covered in this volume include a wide range of academic and industrial applications, including petroleum, mining, and civil engineering.

Chapters focus on advanced topics in the field of rock's fracture mechanics and address theoretical concepts, experimental characterization, numerical simulation techniques, and their applications as appropriate. Each chapter reflects the current state-of-the-art in terms of the modern use of fracture simulation in industrial and academic sectors. Some of the major contributions in this volume include, but are not limited to: anisotropic elasto-plastic deformation mechanisms in fluid saturated porous rocks, dynamics of fluids transport in fractured rocks and simulation techniques, fracture mechanics and simulation techniques in porous rocks, fluid-structure interaction in hydraulic driven fractures, advanced numerical techniques for simulation of progressive fracture, including multiscale modeling, and micromechanical approaches for porous rocks, and quasi-static versus dynamic fractures in porous rocks.

This book will serve as an important resource for petroleum, geomechanics, drilling and structural engineers, R&D managers in industry and academia.

Prof. Jianfu Shao, obtained his M.Sc. on solid mechanics from the University of Science and Technology of Lille (USTL) in 1984 and his doctoral degree on geomechanics in 1987. He was assistant professor at USTL from 1989 to1994 and got a full time professor position in 1994. He was the head of the research team (THM-C coupling) for 15 years (1995-2010), which composed of 15 permanent researchers and 22 doctoral students, and was director of the LML (UMR8107 CNRS) from 01/2010 to 12/2013, composed of 5 research teams, with 75 permanent scientific staff and more than 80 doctoral students. His research interests include experimental investigation, theoretical and numerical modeling of geomaterials and civil engineering structures taking into account thermal, hydromechanical and chemical coupling. In particular, he is working on multi-scale approaches for the formulation of constitutive models based on non-linear homogenization methods, the development of robust numerical simulations and original experimental techniques for deformation and failure processes in heterogeneous geomaterials and structures. He is the PI of two French National Research Agency (ANR) projects and developing strong scientific collaborations with leading industry partners. He is currently a member of editorial boards for four major international journals in geomechanics, civil and environmental engineering. He has supervised more than 30 doctoral students. He is also conducting a number of international collaborations and actively involved in the organization of several international symposiums. He has co-edited two books and co-authored 17 chapters in books. He is the author and co-author of more than 150 papers in SCI journals and received more than 3000 citations with an H index of 30 (Google Scholar sources).
