Scale‐Bridging in Three‐Dimensional Fracture Networks: Characterizing the Effects of Variable Fracture Apertures on Network‐Scale Flow Channelization

We incorporate observations of real fracture aperture variability observed in laboratory experiments into an ensemble of three‐dimensional discrete fracture network (DFN) simulations to characterize how variations of this micro‐scale feature can influence flow and transport behavior at the network s...
