Experimental data of fluid injection-induced shear slip on fractured sandstone samples at varying temperatures

The dataset file named by ‘SampleSC3’ provides the data of the fluid injection experiment into the saw-cut fracture at 140℃. The dataset file named by ‘SampleT1’ provides the data of the fluid injection experiment into the tensile fracture at 25℃. The dataset file named by ‘SampleT2’ provides the data of the fluid injection experiment into the tensile fracture at 80℃.

The dataset file named by ‘SampleT3’ provides the data of the fluid injection experiment into the tensile fracture at 140℃. In each fluid injection experiment, shear stress, friction coefficient, shear slip displacement, slip velocity, effective normal stress, fluid pressure, mean normal deformation, and fluid volume injected are listed as a function of time with a sampling rate of 10 Hz. Definition of each column in the data tables is indicated in the corresponding header of the data.

The unit for each column is shown in the second row. The dataset file named by ‘VelocitySteppingTests’ provides the RSF parameters (a, b, Dc) at different confining pressures and temperatures.
