Figure 7From: Mechanical origin of b-value changes during stimulation of deep geothermal reservoirs Burst distributions for soft systems. The cumulative distribution of burst sizes for soft (e=7.63·10−6) systems. The black line is a guide to the eye for the given slope of the distribution. The b b -values extracted are b b (L)= [ 2.02,2.23,2.60,3.00].Back to article page
