Abstract
Exact solutions of the problem of the pressure distribution around an ideal hydraulic fracture are derived. The crack propagates in a permea ble porous medium following a square-root growth law. The case of the penetration of the fracturing fluid into a reservoir is also considere d. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
