Understanding and modelling the dynamic behaviour of particulate systems has been a
major research focus worldwide for many years. Discrete particle simulation plays an …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is rapidly becoming a standard tool for the analysis of
chemically reacting flows. For single-phase reactors, such as stirred tanks and “empty” …

The third edition of Bubbles, Drops, and Particles in Non-Newtonian Fluids provides
comprehensive coverage of the scientific foundations and the latest advances in particle …

Pore-network models have been used to describe a wide range of properties from capillary
pressure characteristics to interfacial area and mass transfer coefficients. The void space of …

The transport and reaction of fluids in porous media results in unique pore growth and
channel euolution as the media are dissolued. This often leads to the formation of highly …

This paper presents a simulation study of the packing of uniform fine-spherical particles
where the van der Waals force is dominant. It is shown that porosity increases with the …

With the commercial development of extremely low permeability oil and gas reservoirs, new
challenges have arisen both from operational and reservoir standpoints. Reservoir models …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a tool that is becoming more realistic for use in the
description of the detailed flow fields within fixed beds of low tube-to-particle diameter ratio …

This paper presents application of a series of algorithms used to extract pore network
structure from high-resolution three-dimensional synchrotron microtomography images of …

We propose a method for effectively upscaling incompressible viscous flow in large random
polydispersed sphere packings: the emphasis of this method is on the determination of the …
