3D Buoyancy-Driven Propagation of Hydraulic Fractures and their Applications to Magmatic Plumbing Systems
March 16, 2022
VIPS Commission IAVCEI Commission on Volcanic and Igneous Plumbing Systems ECR Series
Understanding how dykes behave as they propagate through the Earth’s crust has been a hot topic for VIPS researchers for many years–to see how magmatic intrusion models have evolved over the past century check out Tim Davis’ blog post! Through numerically modelling a planar three-dimensional (3D) fluid-filled fracture, mine and Lecampion’s research aims to provide insights into dyke emplacement mechanisms and the evolution of their shape.
