The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.1 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.3 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.0002 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.33 SJR: 0.256 SNIP: 0.49 CiteScore™:: 2.4 H-Index: 23

ABSTRACT

A recently developed model is used to investigate flow problems concerning a fractured reservoir. The reservoir is modelled in two ways: 1) as macroscopically isotropic and subject to uniform overall compression; 2) as containing only flat fractures aligned in the horizontal plane which are under the action of a vertical overburden rock pressure. In both cases the reservoir can be elastically deformed as a result of the fractures contracting when the pressure drops in the fluid filling the fractures. The pressure field evolution is analyzed when either bottom-hole pressure or production rate is fixed. The processes of reservoir pressure depletion and recovery are also studied. The results obtained eliminate some limitations inherent in conventional approaches to fractured reservoir filtration and agree well with experimental evidence.
