Bayesian Inversion for Anisotropic Hydraulic Phase-Field Fracture
share
In this work, a Bayesian inversion framework for hydraulic phase-field transversely isotropic and orthotropy anisotropic fracture is proposed. Therein, three primary fields are pressure, displacements, and phase-field while direction-dependent responses are enforced (via penalty-like parameters). A new crack driving state function is introduced by avoiding the compressible part of anisotropic energy to be degraded. For the Bayesian inversion, we employ the delayed rejection adaptive Metropolis (DRAM) algorithm to identify the parameters. We adjust the algorithm to estimate parameters according to a hydraulic fracture observation, i.e., the maximum pressure. The focus is on uncertainties arising from different variables, including elasticity modulus, Biot's coefficient, Biot's modulus, dynamic fluid viscosity, and Griffith's energy release rate in the case of the isotropic hydraulic fracture while in the anisotropic setting, we identify additional penalty-like parameters. Several numerical examples are employed to substantiate our algorithmic developments.
