In order to investigate the influence of non-uniform fracture toughness of layered rockson hydraulic crack propagation, this paper establishes a planar three-dimensional hydraulic crack propagationmodel. The model is numerically solved using the 3D displacement discontinuity method (3D-DDM) and the finitedifference method. The calculation results indicate that when the distribution of the fracture toughness of layeredrocks changes from uniform to non-uniform, the fracture morphology develops from a standard circular crack toan elliptical crack. When the difference of the rock fracture toughness between adjacent rock layers and themiddle rock layer (pay zone) is large enough, the fracture morphology will develop towards a rectangular shape.In addition, when the fracture toughness of rock layers is non-uniformly distributed, the hydraulic crack not onlyrapidly expand in the softening layer (rock layer with lower fracture toughness), but also slowly propagate in thestrong layer (rock layer with higher fracture toughness). However, the propagation speed in the softening layer ismuch faster than that in the strong layer. The results indicate that the heterogeneity of rock fracture toughness hasan important impact on the morphology, propagation speed, and direction of hydraulic fractures.展开更多
