Fracture Reactivation

Fracture Reactivation is the process by which pre-existing fractures in a rock mass undergo renewed slip or dilation in response to changes in the ambient stress field, pore pressure, or tectonic forces, distinguishing it from primary fracturing mechanisms by its dependence on inheritance and mechanical anisotropy of existing fracture networks.
