Growth by Optimization of Work (GROW): A new modeling tool that predicts fault growth through work minimization

Growth by Optimization of Work (GROW) is a new modeling tool that automates fracture initiation, propagation, interaction, and linkage. GROW predicts fracture growth by finding the propagation path and fracture geometry that optimizes the global external work of the system. This implementation of wo...
