The main feature, i.e. path- independence, makes it one of the foremost fracture parameters. In order to remain the path- independence for fluid-driven cracks, J-integral is revised. In this paper, we present an extended J-in- tegral explicitly for fluid-driven cracks, e.g. hydraulically induced fractures in petroleum reservoirs, for three-dimensional (3D) problems. Particularly, point-wise 3D extended J-integral is proposed to char- acterize the state of a point along crack front. Besides, applications of the extended J-integral to porous media and thermally induced stress conditions are explored. Numerical results show that the extended J- integral is indeed path-independent, and they are in good agreement with those of equivalent domain integral under linear elastic and elastoplastic conditions. In addition, two distance-independent circular integrals in the K-dominance zone are established, which can be used to calculate the stress intensity factor (SIF).展开更多

Our result provides a link of infinite-dimensional semi-linear stochastic differential equations to infinite-dimensional Burgers-KPZ type nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations.
