Geomechanical Heterogeneity in channelized systems — How much is enough ?

Puntos clave

• Geomechanical heterogeneity significantly impacts fluid flow in channelized systems, altering structural integrity.
• Key evidence shows that variations in geomechanical properties lead to changes in flow rates and stability.
• Observation of channelized systems indicates the assessment of mechanical properties to determine optimal conditions for flow.
• Highlights the importance of understanding fluid dynamics in geological formations to inform engineering practices.
