Fracture Intensity Quantification

Fracture Intensity Quantification is a measurement framework in structural geology that characterizes the density and spatial distribution of fractures within a rock volume by quantifying the number, length, and orientation of fractures per unit area or volume, thereby differentiating it from qualitative or non-systematic fracture analyses.
