文摘In electrochemical energy storage systems,the sodium-ion battery is typically integrated in the form of a“cell-module-cluster”,but its cross-scale thermal runaway triggering risk and the propagation mechanism remain unclear.This study reveals the cross-scale thermal runaway triggering and propagation behavior of sodium-ion batteries of“cell-module-cluster”under overcharge conditions,and investigates the effects of key factors,including module spacing,triggering cell location,and heat dissipation condition,on the thermal runaway propagation behavior.Results demonstrate that the thermal runaway propagation in a module containing the overcharged cell follows a sequential triggering mode,while thermal runaway in the downstream module exhibits a simultaneous triggering mode with greater severity.Furthermore,increasing the module spacing or enhancing the heat dissipation capacity can effectively reduce the heat accumulation and prevent the trigger of thermal runaway.On the above basis,the multi-dimensional evaluation strategy is proposed to quantitatively assess the hazard of sodium-ion battery cluster thermal runaway.The findings serve as a foundation for the safe design of sodium-ion batteries in energy storage systems.

文摘There is a contradiction between the evolution rate of materials and the time resolution of SR-CT characterization in the in situ synchrotron radiation computed tomography(SR-CT)characterization of ultrafast evolution process.The sampling strategy of the ultra-sparse angle is an effective method for improving time resolution.Accurate reconstruction under sparse sampling conditions has always been a bottleneck problem.In recent years,convolutional neural networks have shown outstanding advantages in sparse-angle CT reconstruction given the development of deep learning.However,existing ideas did not consider the expression of high-frequency details in neural networks,limiting their application in accurate SR-CT characterization.A novel high-frequency information-constrained deep learning network(HFIC-Net)is proposed in response to this problem.Additional high-frequency information constraints are added to improve the accuracy of the reconstruction results.Further,a series of numerical reconstruction experiments are conducted to verify this new method,and the results indicate that the reconstruction results of HFIC-Net method effectively improve reconstruction quality.This new method uses only eight-angle projections to achieve the reconstruction effect of the filtered backprojection method(FBP)method in 360 projections.The results of the HFIC-Net method demonstrate clear boundaries and accurate detailed structures,correcting the misinformation caused by using other methods.For quantitative evaluation,the SSIM used to evaluate image structure similarity is increased from 0.1951,0.9212,and 0.9308 for FBP,FBP-Conv,and DDC-Net,respectively,to 0.9620 for HFIC-Net.Finally,the results of actual SR-CT experimental data indicate that the new method can suppress artifacts and achieve accurate reconstruction,and it is suitable for the in situ SR-CT accurate characterization of ultxafast evolution process.

文摘With the increasing application of lithium-ion batteries under high-rate operation,safety concerns such as thermal runaway(TR)and thermal runaway propagation(TRP)have become critical.In this study,the TRP action of batteries undergoing high-rate cycling is systematically investigated.Microanalysis results reveal that the crystallinity and I_((003))/I_((104))of the cathode are decreased by 32.95%and 13.01%after 4 C cycling,while the layered structure of the anode is seriously damaged.As revealed,the TR interval time(At)of batteries cycled at 4 C is decreased by 83.23%compared with that for batteries cycled at 1 C.Meanwhile,the maximum mass loss(ML)rate of Battery 2#is increased by 32.35%.We have further investigated the influence of battery spacing on TRP action.The maximum TR temperature of Battery2#at 1.5 cm spacing is reduced by 26.21%compared with the value at 0 cm spacing.When increasing the spacing from 0 to 1.5 cm,the ML of batteries is reduced by 20.73%.ML increases and decreases with the elevation of the charging rate and battery spacing,respectively.Compared with a battery cycled at1 C,a battery cycled at 4 C shows reduced heat required to trigger TR.The corresponding decreases can reach 68.28%,70.10%,76.88%,and 26.15%when setting the spacing at 0,0.6,1.5,and 2.1 cm,respectively.This indicates that Battery 2#can enter TR with much lower heat after high-rate cycling.Overall,high-rate cycling and low spacing accelerate the TRP of the battery and aggravate the TR severity of the battery.This work can provide insights for the practical safety design of energy storage systems.

文摘Physics-informed neural networks(PINNs)have been shown as powerful tools for solving partial differential equations(PDEs)by embedding physical laws into the network training.Despite their remarkable results,complicated problems such as irregular boundary conditions(BCs)and discontinuous or high-frequency behaviors remain persistent challenges for PINNs.For these reasons,we propose a novel two-phase framework,where a neural network is first trained to represent shape functions that can capture the irregularity of BCs in the first phase,and then these neural network-based shape functions are used to construct boundary shape functions(BSFs)that exactly satisfy both essential and natural BCs in PINNs in the second phase.This scheme is integrated into both the strong-form and energy PINN approaches,thereby improving the quality of solution prediction in the cases of irregular BCs.In addition,this study examines the benefits and limitations of these approaches in handling discontinuous and high-frequency problems.Overall,our method offers a unified and flexible solution framework that addresses key limitations of existing PINN methods with higher accuracy and stability for general PDE problems in solid mechanics.

文摘Arc faults within the transformers can generate sudden pressure surges,constituting significant hazards that may precipitate oil tank explosions and severely compromise power system stability.Conventional power−frequency arc discharge experiments encounter limitations in isolating pressure wave characteristics due to persistent gas generation and arc reignition.To circumvent these challenges,an oil-immersed impulse voltage discharge platform was conceived and engineered to investigate pressure wave propagation dynamics.A pressure numerical simulation model and theoretical model of oil−solid interface reflection and refraction were subsequently established to elucidate the pressure propagation mechanism.The experimental and simulation results show that the pressure wave generated by pulsed arc discharge in oil propagates radially in the form of spherical waves.Due to the viscous loss and wave front expansion of transformer oil,the peak pressure decays exponentially with distance,with a decay coefficientβ=1.15.When pressure waves encounter metal obstacles inside transformer oil,there are two propagation paths:direct transmission through and multiple reflections through,and a mode transformation of pressure waves occurs at the oil−solid interface,mainly propagating through obstacles in the form of transverse waves.This work quantitatively delineates the energy pressure wave coupling,propagation dynamics,and attenuation mechanisms,providing critical insights for assessing and mitigating arc fault-induced transformer explosion risks.
文摘Hydraulic fracturing serves as a critical technology for reservoir stimulation in deep coalbed methane(CBM)development,where the mechanical properties of gangue layers exert a significant control on fracture propagation behavior.To address the unclear mechanisms governing fracture penetration across coal-gangue interfaces,this study employs the Continuum-Discontinuum Element Method(CDEM)to simulate and analyze the vertical propagation of hydraulic fractures initiating within coal seams,based on geomechanical parameters derived from the deep Benxi Formation coal seams in the southeastern Ordos Basin.The investigation systematically examines the influence of geological and operational parameters on cross-interfacial fracture growth.Results demonstrate that vertical stress difference,elastic modulus contrast between coal and gangue layers,interfacial stress differential,and interfacial cohesion at coal-gangue interfaces are critical factors governing hydraulic fracture penetration through these interfaces.High vertical stress differences(>3 MPa)inhibit interfacial dilation,promoting predominant crosslayer fracture propagation.Reduced interfacial stress contrasts and enhanced interfacial cohesion facilitate fracture penetration across interfaces.Furthermore,smaller elastic modulus contrasts between coal and gangue correlate with increased interfacial aperture.Finally,lower injection rates effectively suppress vertical fracture propagation in deep coal reservoirs.This study elucidates the characteristics and mechanisms governing cross-layer fracture propagation in coal–rock composites with interbedded partings,and delineates the dynamic evolution laws and dominant controlling factors involved.Thefindings provide critical theoretical insights for the optimization of fracture design and the efficient development of deep coalbed methane reservoirs.

文摘To investigate the fracture initiation and propagation behavior of fractures in tight sandstone under the supercritical CO_(2)(SCCO_(2))shock fracturing,laboratory fracturing experiments were conducted using a true-triaxial-like SCCO_(2)shock fracturing system.Computed tomography(CT)scanning and three-dimensional fracture reconstruction were employed to elucidate the effects of shock pressure,pore pressure,and in-situ stress on fracture characteristics.In addition,nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)transverse relaxation time spectra were used to assess the internal damage induced by SCCO_(2)shock fracturing.The results indicate that,compared with conventional hydraulic fracturing and SCCO_(2)quasi-static fracturing,SCCO_(2)shock fracturing facilitates multidirectional fracture initiation and the formation of complex fracture networks.Increasing shock pressure more readily activates bedding-plane weaknesses,with main and subsidiary fractures interweaving into a dense fracture network.Under the same impulse intensity,elevated pore pressure reduces the effective normal stress and alters stress-wave scattering paths,thereby inducing more branch fractures and enhancing fracture complexity.An increase in differential in-situ stress promotes fracture propagation along the direction of the maximum principal stress,reduces branching,and simplifies fracture morphology.With increasing SCCO_(2)shock pressure,pore volume and connectivity generally increase:small-to-medium pores primarily respond through increased number and enhanced connectivity;when the shock pressure rises to 40-45 MPa,crack coalescence generates larger pores and fissures,which play a dominant role in improving flow pathways and effective storage space,ultimately forming a multiscale pore-fracture network.

文摘The influence of different solution and aging conditions on the microstructure,impact toughness,and crack initiation and propagation mechanisms of the novel α+β titanium alloy Ti6422 was systematically investigated.By adjusting the furnace cooling time after solution treatment and the aging temperature,Ti6422 alloy samples were developed with a multi-level lamellar microstructure,in-cluding microscaleαcolonies and α_(p) lamellae,as well as nanoscale α_(s) phases.Extending the furnace cooling time after solution treatment at 920℃ for 1 h from 240 to 540 min,followed by aging at 600℃ for 6 h,increased the α_(p) lamella content,reduced the α_(s) phase content,expanded theαcolonies and α_(p) lamellae size,and improved the impact toughness from 22.7 to 53.8 J/cm^(2).Additionally,under the same solution treatment,raising the aging temperature from 500 to 700℃ resulted in a decrease in the α_(s) phase content and a growth in the thickness of the α_(p) lamella and α_(s) phase.The impact toughness increased significantly with these changes.Samples with high α_(p) lamellae content or large α_(s) phase size exhibited high crack initiation and propagation energies.Impact deformation caused severe kinking of the α_(p) lamellae in crack initiation and propagation areas,leading to a uniform and high-density kernel average misorientation(KAM)distribu-tion,enhancing plastic deformation coordination and uniformity.Moreover,the multidirectional arrangement of coarserαcolonies and α_(p) lamellae continuously deflect the crack propagation direction,inhibiting crack propagation.

文摘In this paper,a fast step heterodyne light-induced thermoelastic spectroscopy(SH-LITES)sensor using a high-frequency quartz tuning fork(QTF)with resonant frequency of~100 kHz is reported for the first time.The theoretical principle of heterodyne LITES(H-LITES)signal generation is analyzed firstly,and an acetylene(C_(2)H_(2))H-LITES sensor is established to verify its performance.Experimental comparisons between the high-frequency QTF and a standard commercial QTF with resonant frequency of~32.768 kHz reveal that the high-frequency QTF exhibits a tenfold faster response time.Specifically,the H-LITES sensor with this QTF achieves a 33 ms measurement cycle,90%shorter than commercial counterparts.Furthermore,The SH-LITES technique is proposed to further shorten the scanning time to 15 ms,which achieves the shortest LITES measurement time known to date.To demonstrate its advantages in dynamic gas detection,an H_(2)O-LITES system integrating both QTF types is constructed for real-time monitoring of H_(2)O concentration during different respiration patterns.Comparative measurements show that the SH-LITES more accurately captures dynamic H_(2)O concentration fluctuations during respiration,outperforming the commercial QTF-based H-LITES sensor in rapid response scenarios.

文摘The stability of rock slopes is frequently controlled by the initiation and propagation of inherent dominant cracks.This study systematically investigated these processes in valley slopes by combining fracture-mechanics analysis with transparent soil model tests.An analytical expression for the stress field at the dominant crack tip was derived from the slope stress distribution by superposing the corresponding stress intensity factors(SIFs).The theoretical predictions were then validated against observations from transparent soil model tests.The influences of slope angle(β),crack inclination angle(α),crack position parameter(b),and crack length parameter(h)on crack initiation and propagation were quantified.The results indicated that:(1)cracks at the slope crest tended to propagate in shear mode,and the shear crack initiation angle(θ_(s))was approximately 8°.Cracks at the slope toe might propagate in either tensile or shear mode.(2)θ_(s) at the slope crest increased withβ,b,and l,and decreased withα.The maximum change inθ_(s) induced by the considered parameters was approximately 30°.(3)The tensile crack initiation angle(θ_(t))at the slop toe decreased withβ,α,and l,while the influence of b was comparatively minor.The maximum change inθ_(t) caused by individual parameters ranged approximately from 25°to 60°.Predicted crack propagation modes and directions showed good agreement with experimental results.These findings provide theoretical guidance for stability assessments of valley slopes controlled by dominant crack propagation.

文摘Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists,originally developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus,have been suggested as a potential disease-modifying treatment for Parkinson’s disease.Some clinical trials of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists have demonstrated that they can alleviate motor dysfunction and improve quality of life for patients with Parkinson’s disease.However,the mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists have yet to be elucidated.In this study,we usedα-synuclein preformed fibrils to generate in vitro and in vivo models of Parkinson’s disease and investigated the effects of a short-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist,lixisenatide,on the propagation ofα-synuclein pathology.We found that lixisenatide reducedα-synuclein phosphorylation,aggregation,and propagation in cells treated withα-synuclein preformed fibrils,and that these effects were accompanied by decreased mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis.Additionally,lixisenatide treatment alleviated motor dysfunction and dopaminergic cell neurodegeneration 20 weeks after stereotactic injection ofα-synuclein preformed fibrils into the striatum of wild-type mice.In addition,lixisenatide inhibitedα-synuclein phosphorylation and seeding between neurons,mediated by neuronal lymphocyte-activation gene 3 expression.This study provides new insights into the mechanism underlying the disease-modifying effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

文摘Hydraulic stimulation technology is widely employed to enhance the permeability of geothermal reservoirs.Nevertheless,accurately predicting hydraulic fracture propagation in complex geological conditions remains challenging,thereby hindering the effective utilization of existing natural fractures.In this study,a phase field model was developed utilizing the finite element method to examine the influence of fluid presence,stress conditions,and natural fractures on the initiation and propagation of hydraulic fractures.The model employs Biot's poroelasticity theory to establish the coupling between the displacement field and the fluid field,while the phase field theory is applied to simulate fracture behavior.The results show that whenσ_(x0)/σ_(y0)<3 or qf<20 kg/(m^(3)·s),the presence of natural fractures can alter the original propagation direction of hydraulic fractures.Conversely,in the absence of these conditions,the propagation path of natural fractures is predominantly influenced by the initial stress field.Furthermore,based on the analysis of breakdown pressure and damage area,the optimal intersection angle between natural fractures and hydraulic fractures is determined to range from 45°to 60°.Finally,once a dominant channel forms,initiating and propagating hydraulic fractures in other directions becomes increasingly difficult,even in highly fractured areas.This method tackles the challenges of initiating and propagating hydraulic fractures in complex geological conditions,providing a theoretical basis for optimizing Enhanced Geothermal System(EGS)projects.

文摘Using the software ANSYS-19.2/Explicit Dynamics,this study performedfinite-element modeling of the large-diameter steel pipeline cross-section for the Beineu-Bozoy-Shymkent gas pipeline with a non-through straight crack,strengthened by steel wire wrapping.The effects of the thread tensile force of the steel winding in the form of single rings at the crack edges and the wires with different winding diameters and pitches were also studied.The results showed that the strengthening was preferably executed at a minimum value of the thread tensile force,which was 6.4%more effective than that at its maximum value.The analysis of the influence of the winding dia-meters showed that the equivalent stresses increased by 32%from the beginning of the crack growth until the wire broke.The increment in winding diameter decelerated the disclosure of the edge crack and reduced its length by 8.2%.The analysis of the influence of the winding pitch showed that decreasing the distance between the winding turns also led to a 33.6%reduction in the length of the straight crack and a 7.9%reduction in the maximum stres-ses on the strengthened pipeline cross-section.The analysis of the temperature effect on the pipeline material,within a range from-40℃to+50℃,resulted in a crack length change of up to 5.8%.As the temperature dropped,the crack length decreased.Within such a temperature range,the maximum stresses were observed along the cen-tral area of the crack,which were equal to 413 MPa at+50℃and 440 MPa at-40℃.The results also showed that the presence of the steel winding in the pipeline significantly reduced the length of crack propagation up to 8.4 times,depending on the temperature effect and design parameters of prestressing.This work integrated the existing methods for crack localization along steel gas pipelines.

文摘The crack initiation and early propagation are of great significance to the overall fatigue life of material.In order to investigate the anisotropic fracture behavior of laser metal deposited Ti-6Al-4V alloy(LMD Ti64)during the early stage,the fourpoint bending fatigue test was carried out on specimens of three different directions,as well as the forged specimens.The results indicate the anisotropic crack initiation and early propagation of LMD Ti64.The direction perpendicular to the deposition direction exhibits a better fatigue resistance than the other two.The crack initiation position and propagation path are dominated by the microstructure in the vicinity of U-notch.LMD Ti64 has a typical small crack effect,and the early crack propagation velocities in three directions are similar.Affected by the slip system of LMD Ti64,secondary cracks frequently occur,which are often found to have an angle of 60°to the main crack.The electron backscatter diffraction analysis indicates that LMD Ti64 has preferred orientations,i.e.,strong 0001//Z texture and 001//Z texture.Their crystallographic orientation will change as the direction of columnarβgrains turns over,resulting in the fatigue anisotropy of LMD Ti64 in crack initiation and early crack propagation process.
文摘China has a long history of coal mining,among which open-pit coal mines have a large number of small coal mine goafs underground.The distribution,shape,structure and other characteristics of goafs are isolated and discontinuous,and there is no definite geological law to follow,which seriously threatens the safety of coal mine production and personnel life.Conventional ground geophysical methods have low accuracy in detecting goaf areas affected by mechanical interference from open-pit mines,especially for waterless goaf areas,which cannot be detected by existing methods.This article proposes the use of high-frequency electromagnetic waves for goaf detection.The feasibility of using drilling radar to detect goaf was theoretically analyzed,and a goaf detection model was established.The response characteristics of different fillers in the goaf under different frequencies of high-frequency electromagnetic waves were simulated and analyzed.In a certain open-pit mine in Inner Mongolia,100MHz high-frequency electromagnetic waves were used to detect the goaf through directional drilling on the ground.After detection,excavation verification was carried out,and the location of one goaf detected was verified.The results of engineering practice show that the application of high-frequency electromagnetic waves in goaf detection expands the detection radius of boreholes,has the advantages of high efficiency and accuracy,and has important theoretical and practical significance.

文摘The Rock-soil interface is a common geological interface.Due to mechanical differences between soil and rock,the stress waves generated by underground blasting undergo intense polarization when crossing the rock-soil interface,making propagation laws difficult to predict.Currently,the characteristics of the impact of the rock-soil interface on blasting stress waves remain unclear.Therefore,the vibration field caused by cylindrical charge blasting in elastic rock and partial-saturation poro-viscoelastic soil was solved.A forward algorithm for the underground blasting vibration field in rock-soil sites was proposed,considering medium damping and geometric diffusion effects of stress waves.Further investigation into the influence of rock and soil parameters and blasting source parameters revealed the following conclusions:stress waves in soil exhibit dispersion,causing peak particle velocity(PPV)to display a discrete distribution.Soil parameters affect PPV attenuation only within the soil,while blasting source parameters affect PPV attenuation throughout the entire site.Multi-wave coupling effects induced by the rocksoil interface result in zones of enhanced and attenuated PPV within the site.The size of the enhancement zone is inversely correlated with the distance from the blasting source and positively correlated with the blasting source attenuation rate and burial depth,providing guidance for selecting explosives and blasting positions.Additionally,PPV attenuation rate increases with distance from the rock-soil interface,but an amplification effect occurs near the interface,most noticeable at 0.1 m.Thus,a sufficient safety distance from the rock-soil interface is necessary during underground blasting.

文摘Due to the invisibility and complexity of the underground spaces,monitoring the propagation and filling characteristics of the grouting slurry post the water–sand mixture inrush in metal mines is challenging,which complicates engineering treatment.This research investigated the propagation law of cement-sodium silicate slurry under flowing water conditions within the caving mass of a metal mine.First,based on borehole packer test results and borehole TV images,the fractured strata before grouting were classified into four types:cavity,hidden,fissure,and complete.Second,an orthogonal experimental design was employed to evaluate the impact of four key factors—stratigraphic fragmentation,water flow rate,grouting flow rate,and water-cement ratio—on the efficacy of grouting within a caving mass at the site.The results indicate that the factors influencing grouting efficacy are ranked in the following order of importance:stratigraphic fragmentation>water flow rate>water–cement ratio>grouting flow rate.Ultimately,five propagation filling modes—pure slurry,big crack,small crack,small karst pore,and pore penetration—were identified by examining the propagation filling characteristics of slurry in rock samples,incorporating microscopic material structure analysis through scanning electron microscopy and energy spectrum analysis.The findings of this study provide valuable insights into selecting engineering treatment parameters and methodologies,serving as a reference for preventing and controlling water–sand mixture inrush in metal mines,thereby enhancing treatment efficacy and ensuring grouting success.

文摘Prepulse combined hydraulic fracturing facilitates the development of fracture networks by integrating prepulse hydraulic loading with conventional hydraulic fracturing.The formation mechanisms of fracture networks between hydraulic and pre-existing fractures under different prepulse loading parameters remain unclear.This research investigates the impact of prepulse loading parameters,including the prepulse loading number ratio(C),prepulse loading stress ratio(S),and prepulse loading frequency(f),on the formation of fracture networks between hydraulic and pre-existing fractures,using both experimental and numerical methods.The results suggest that low prepulse loading stress ratios and high prepulse loading number ratios are advantageous loading modes.Multiple hydraulic fractures are generated in the specimen under the advantageous loading modes,facilitating the development of a complex fracture network.Fatigue damage occurs in the specimen at the prepulse loading stage.The high water pressure at the secondary conventional hydraulic fracturing promotes the growth of hydraulic fractures along the damage zones.This allows the hydraulic fractures to propagate deeply and interact with pre-existing fractures.Under advantageous loading conditions,multiple hydraulic fractures can extend to pre-existing fractures,and these hydraulic fractures penetrate or propagate along pre-existing fractures.Especially when the approach angle is large,the damage range in the specimen during the prepulse loading stage increases,resulting in the formation of more hydraulic fractures.

文摘Salience theory has been proposed as a new stock trading strategy.To assess the validity of this proposal,a complex decision trading system was constructed based on salience theory,a variational mode decomposition(VMD)model,a bidirectional gated recurrent unit(BiGRU)model,and high-frequency trading.The system selected 30 Chinese new energy concept stocks,ranked the stocks using salience theory,and selected the top and bottom three stocks for two portfolios.Twelve stages were established,following which the VMD and BiGRU models were applied to the predictions.The final predicted annualized returns for the high ST(salience theory value)group A(GA)and low ST group B(GB)were 194.06%and 165.88%,respectively.This finding validates the powerful utility of salience theory and deep learning to analyze the Chinese new energy market.Moreover,it explains the theoretical practicality issues that the short selling restriction is the essential reason,or even perhaps the only reason,that leads to the strength of salience theory.

文摘Multi-stage and multi-cluster fracturing(MMF)is a crucial technology in unconventional oil and gas development,aiming to enhance production by creating extensive fracture networks.However,achieving uniform expansion of multi-cluster hydraulic fractures(HFs)in MMF remains a significant challenge.Field practice has shown that the use of temporary plugging and diversion fracturing(TPDF)can promote the balanced expansion of multi-cluster HFs.This study conducted TPDF experiments using a true triaxial fracturing simulation system setting a horizontal well completion with multi-cluster jetting perforations to investigate the equilibrium initiation and extension of multi-cluster fractures.The influence of key parameters,including cluster spacing,fracturing fluid viscosity,differential stress,and fracturing fluid injection rate,on fracture initiation and propagation was systematically examined.The results indicate that while close-spaced multi-cluster fracturing significantly increases the number of HFs,it also leads to uneven extension of HFs in their propagation.In contrast,TPDF demonstrates effectiveness in mitigating uneven HF extension,increasing the number of HFs,and creating a larger stimulated reservoir volume,ultimately leading to improved oil and gas well productivity.Moreover,under conditions of high differential stress,the differential stress within the formation exerts a stronger guiding effect in HFs,which are more closely aligned with the minimum principal stress.Low-viscosity fluids facilitate rapid and extensive fracture propagation within the rock formation.High-volume fluid injection,on the other hand,more comprehensively fills the formation.Therefore,employing lowviscosity and high-volume fracturing is advantageous for the initiation and extension of multi-cluster HFs.
