Abstract
In this work, the problem of the development of a hydraulic fracture crack near a circular cavity in a three-dimensional homogeneous elastic medium is considered. The results of numerical calculations performed using the extended finite element method (XFEM) implemented in the ABAQUS software package are presented. Various variants of the position of the initial disk crack relative to the cavity are considered. Some regularities of the development of a three-dimensional hydraulic fracture near the cavity have been found.
