title = "Propagation of non-planar pressurized cracks from a borehole",
abstract = "The in-situ stress field plays a crucial role in determining the orientation and shape of fractures that are initiated from a borehole. The paper outlines some investigations into the initial propagation of fractures from a pressurized borehole in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional cases. This has specific importance in understanding the stress field orientation and highlights some important contrasts between two and threedimensional simulations of fracture propagation.",
