Frequency Limitation for Triaxial Induction Tools and Dielectric Tools in 1-D Multi-Layered Transverse Isotropic Formation
… induction tools in one-dimensional multi-layered transverse isotropic formation with both the borehole and invasions neglected. Dielectric tools have the same basic formulations as triaxial induction tools except there only have two directions. Given the wide use of dielectric tools in the …

Inherent strength and stiffness anisotropy of laminated rocks
… engineering applications built either on or in anisotropic rock masses to investigate the strength and deformation behavior of those masses. To achieve this goal, continuum-based constitutive models are presented to analyze the mechanical anisotropy. One of both implemented models is named …

Enhanced Laboratory Testing and Characterization Related to the Mechanics of Anisotropic Rock
… to interact and sometimes be hosted in anisotropic geomaterials. This anisotropic environment is composed of two components, discontinuities and intact blocks. In many cases, these intact blocks of rock are anisotropic, specifically transverse isotropic, where empirical methods do not …

Modeling the Mechanical Response of Polycrystalline Thin Films
… in MEMS often show fiber texture resulting in transverse isotropic elastic properties. It is of interest to determine these elastic properties, in particular the in-plane Young's modulus, since it plays a fundamental role in device performance. The fabrication process of MEMS films introduces …

Propagation of fluid driven fractures in transversely isotropic material
… the mechanics of hydraulic fractures (HF) in isotropic media is well established, the impact of the anisotropy of natural rocks on HF propagation is still far from being understood. Sedimentary rocks like shales and mudstones are ubiquitous in upper earth crust which are made of fine layers …

Hydraulic Fracturing Behavior of Opalinus Shale: A Framework, Experimentation & Insights
… creep compliance, and toughness along the transverse isotropic principal directions of the two distinct layers comprising this shale. Test results were used to approximate the radius of plasticity and fracture energy in each of the principal directions of each layer. Finally, a conceptual …

Borehole Breakouts in Transversely Isotropic Posidonia Shale
… characterization of the two rocks, a transverse isotropy (TVI) was derived. In general, PS is softer and weaker than PN, which is due to the stronger compaction of the material due to the higher burial depth. Conventional triaxial borehole breakout experiments on specimens with …
