Porous Rock Fracture Mechanics (ePub)

Dr. Amir Shojaei is a Technical Consultant and Scientist at DuPont Performance Materials (Wilmington, DE, USA) and has held research scientist and lecturer positions at Halliburton Energy Services (Houston, TX, USA), Louisiana State University (Baton Rouge, LA, USA), University College London (London, UK), and University of Sheffield (Sheffield, UK). He received his doctorate in Mechanical Engineering in May of 2012 from Louisiana State University. He has been working on several research projected, funded by NASA (USA), National Science Foundation (USA), US Air Force (USA), and EPSRC (UK), related to advanced simulation techniques for progressive fracture simulation in rocks, polymer composites, and metals. During his career as a “computational mechanics scientist at Multiscale Design System LLC (now MultiScale Designer - Altair), he carried out intensive research work for Lockheed Martin and General Motor Industries to study the efficiency of the multiscale predictive techniques for static and fatigue life prediction of advanced composites. His research foci immediately relevant to this volume includes extensive work with rock failure mechanics, rock’s continuum damage mechanics, fracture mechanics, poroelasticity and poroplasticity and - over the last five years - has carried out many researches in field of perforation, hydraulic fracturing and drilling mechanics. He is the author of over 20 peer-reviewed technical articles, 3 book chapters published by Springer and Woodhead publishing, and 3 US patents. He is also serving as a reviewer in many topnotch international journals.

Prof. Jianfu Shao, obtained his M.Sc. on solid mechanics from the University of Science and Technology of Lille (USTL) in 1984 and his doctoral degree on geomechanics in 1987. He was assistant professor at USTL from 1989 to1994 and got a full time professor position in 1994. He was the head of the research team (THM-C coupling) for 15 years (1995-2010), which composed of 15 permanent
