Fluid flow in porous systems driven by capillary pressure is one of the most ubiquitous
phenomena in nature and industry, including petroleum and hydraulic engineering as well …

Spontaneous imbibition in shale is commonly observed during and after hydraulic fracturing.
This mechanism greatly influences hydrocarbon recovery in shale plays, therefore attracting …

In this paper, a fractal model for capillary flow through a single tortuous capillary with
roughened surfaces in fibrous porous media is derived. The determined imbibition height …

In the past decades, there was considerable controversy over the Lucas–Washburn (LW)
equation widely applied in capillary imbibition kinetics. Many experimental results showed …

Spontaneous imbibition of wetting liquid into porous media is regarded as a crucially
important driving mechanism for enhancing oil recovery from naturally fractured reservoir …

自发渗吸是发生在多孔介质里的一种常见自然现象, 存在于众多工程应用和自然科学领域,
多孔介质中自发渗吸的基本静力学和动力学问题已成为当前国际研究的热点课题之一 …

Spontaneous imbibition in porous media plays an important role in numerous industrial
processes, but its underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood due to the complicated …

Abstract Hypothesis The widely used Lucas-Washburn (LW) equation depends on the
contact angle as the driving force for liquid penetration. However, the contact angle depends …

Due to the low matrix porosity and permeability of gas shales, the horizontal well drilling and
hydraulic fracturing technologies become a necessity to exploit the unconventional shale …

The work is intended to summarize the recent progress in the work of fractal theory in
packaging material to provide important insights into applied research on fractal in …
