Problem
When building fracture meshes,
__generateFractureMeshdoes not remove from its list ALL faces that are located where the matrix is not actually split.This leads to fault element with no opposite-side cell, which crashes GEOS downstream.
This can happen at fracture intersections (both adjacent cells land on the same side of another fracture's duplication) and fracture tips (no duplication at all on the face), see screenshot below.
Fix
A candidate face is now kept only if the split algorithm assigns different node copies to the face's two adjacent 3D cells for at least one verte. If every vertex resolves to the same copy in both cells, the face is discarded.
