Rock mechanics

proposal that fractures close to frictional failure in the current stress field are the ones that conduct fluid in crystalline rock.

In rock mechanics, critically stressed fault hypothesis refers to proposal that fractures close to frictional failure in the current stress field are the ones that conduct fluid in crystalline rock. This meaning comes from Barton (1995) in Geology.[1]
