Critical Reynolds number for nonlinear flow through rough-walled fractures: The role of shear processes

This paper experimentally investigates the role of shear processes on the variation of critical Reynolds number and nonlinear flow through rough-walled rock fractures. A quantitative criterion was developed to quantify the onset of nonlinear flow by comprehensive combination of Forchheimer's la...
