| Abstract | In this paper, we present a fully coupled solid-fluid code based on discrete element method (DEM) and lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). The DEM is used to model the deformation and fracture in solid, while the LBM is used to model the fluid flow. The two methods are two-way coupled, i.e., the solid part provides a moving boundary condition and transfers momentum to fluid, while the fluid exerts a dragging force to the solid. The preliminary 2-D simulations of hydraulic fracturing induced by injection of fluid into a borehole, are carried out to validate the integrated code. |
