Pore clogging and unclogging in porous media are ubiquitous in subsurface hydrologic
processes, which have been studied extensively at various scales ranging from a single …

Clogging of porous media is controlled by attachment of particles and their subsequent
detachment. In this study, we explore particle transport at the pore scale by considering …

Particle deposition in porous media alters hydraulic properties including porosity and
permeability. The extent of these alterations depends on both porous media structure and its …

A 3‐D refractive‐index matching Lagrangian particle tracking (3D‐RIM‐LPT) system was
developed to study the filtration and the clogging process inside a homogeneous porous …

The migration and retention of fine particles in porous media are important phenomena in
natural processes and engineering applications. Migrating particles experience …

Introducing a model to study deposition and erosion of single particles at microscopic scale,
we investigate the clogging and erosive processes in a pore. The particle diameter …

The flow of colloidal suspensions through porous media often leads to the deposition of
particles inside the pores which increases the local hydrodynamic resistance by narrowing …

Clogging by colloid deposits is important in water treatment filters, groundwater aquifers,
and petroleum reservoirs. The complexity of colloid deposition and deposit morphology …

Fines migration through porous media takes place in a broad range of areas, spanning from
functional structures in living organisms to mechanical operations involving filtration. Fines …

Understanding mineral precipitation induced porosity clogging and being able to quantify its
non‐linear feedback on transport properties is fundamental for predicting the long‐term …
