Toxic organic contaminants may enter the subsurface as slightly soluble and volatile
nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) or as dissolved solutes resulting in contaminant plumes …

Difficulties encountered in describing fracture flow using classical fluid flow equations has
led to extensive studies of the roughness effect on fracture flow over the past 70 years …

The hypothesis that the brittle–ductile transition (BDT) drastically reduces permeability
implies that potentially exploitable geothermal resources (permeability> 10− 16 m2) …

An accurate description of the relative permeability–saturation function is crucial for reliable
predictions of multi‐phase flow behavior in subsurface applications. Although extensive …

The accurate prediction of relative permeability is one of the most important issues in the
study of multiphase flow in porous media and is involved in many fields, such as geothermal …

This study investigates the stress-dependency of relative permeability in rock fractures.
Previous studies provide contradictory evidence of the influence of increasing stress on the …

Effective storage and containment of injected fluids, over a range of spatial and temporal
scales, is reliant upon the sealing capacity of the lithologies overlying geological stores. Low …

We develop an efficient computational model for simulating fluid invasion patterns emerging
in variable aperture fractures. This two‐dimensional model takes into account the effect of …

In this work, we use the steady-state measurement technique to characterize two-phase
brine-mineral oil relative permeabilities and residual trapping in water-wet rough-walled …

This paper considers the influence of geometry and flow conditions on the relative
permeability of wetting and non-wetting components of multiphase flows through fractures …
