In shale reservoirs, fluids are often confined within nanopores, leading to apparent effects on the properties and phase behavior of the fluid. However, previous studies have primarily focused on the effect of capillary pressure or adsorption on well performance, and only a very limited number of st...

Hydraulic fracturing plays a critical role in enhancing shale gas production in deep shale reservoirs. Conventional hydraulic fracturing simulation methods rely on prefabricated grids, which can be hindered by the challenge of being computationally overpowered. This study proposes an efficient fract...
