Abstract
► Cohesive finite element modelling of hydraulic fractures. ► Viscosity-dominated plane strain and penny-shaped hydraulic fractures. ► Excellent agreement between the finite element results and analytical solutions. ► Mesh transition and node sharing provides a higher solution accuracy and efficiency. ► Determine the far-field boundary deformation for fractures in an infinite domain.
