How to simulate Hydraulic Fracturing in porous media by COMSOL

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Dear all,

I am going to model the hydraulic fracturing processes with COMSOL. At present, the coupled HM cohesive zone model is widely used to simulate the hydraulic fracturing. However, the cohesive zone model given in COMSOL only include the mechanical processes. I wonder whether there are any other methods to simulate hydraulic fracturing by COMSOL. Could you please give me a basic idea about that?

Thank you so much for your help.
