Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The new fracturing technology of intensive stages and high-intensity proppant injection shows significant advantages of cost reduction and high efficiency in the volume fracturing of unconventional reservoirs, but it also intensifies the erosion of the casing and the perforations, with a perforation diameter expansion and the casing wall thinning. To solve this problem, in view of the applications of the perforation fracturing technology under the construction conditions in Mahu Area in Xinjiang, China, the structure parameters of the downhole strings are measured and a calculation model of the perforation casing erosion is established for the large-displacement sand fracturing process in horizontal sections. The software ANSYS-FLUENT is used to simulate the casing and perforation erosion under different conditions of the displacement, the sand content, the proppant particle size, and the fracturing fluid viscosity in the sand fracturing process. The particle size of the proppant and the viscosity of the fracturing fluid mainly affect the erosion area, but they have little influence on the erosion rate. The sand content and the displacement significantly affect the erosion rate. Among these factors, the sand content has a more significant effect on the erosion rate and the displacement has a more significant effect on the erosion area. Due to the influence of gravity, the perforation erosion rate is larger when the phase angle ranges from 120° to 240°.
