Coupled Thermo-Hydro-Chemo-Mechanical Processes in Rock Fracture: Implications for Long-Term Subsurface Carbon Sequestration Integrity

The injection of CO₂ into deep geological formations triggers a complex network of coupled geochemical and geomechanical processes. While reservoir pressure assessments often treat rock strength as a static parameter, the introduction of CO₂ alters the subsurface environment by acidifying the resident pore fluids. This...
