Abstract
Fracture networks are simulated using a large triangle mesh size for large fractures and a smaller triangle mesh size for small fractures. Input data defining parameters of one or more fractures are input, the fractures being comprised of a triangle mesh. A first triangle mesh size for the fractures is determined based upon the input data. A second smaller triangle mesh size is then determined based upon the input data. The fracture network is then simulated using the large and small triangle mesh sizes.
