Progress in seismic methodology and ambitious large‐scale seismic projects are enabling
high‐resolution imaging of the continental crust. The ability to constrain interpretations of …

Percolation Theory has made significant breakthroughs in the understanding of physical
processes through identification of an infinite connected cluster. It allows the definition of …

The production of natural gas has become increasingly important in the United States
because of the development of hydraulic fracturing techniques, which significantly increase …

Anisotropy of elastic properties in clay‐rich sedimentary rocks has been of long‐standing
interest. These rocks are cap rocks of oil and gas reservoirs, as well as seals for carbon …

Abstract Interpretation of tracer tests in geothermal reservoirs is carried out by fitting the
measured data either with simplified two-dimensional (2-D) analytical solutions or with …

Microtomography provides detailed 3D internal structures of materials in micro-to tens of
nano-meter resolution and is quickly turning into a new technology for studying …

Magnetic pore fabrics (MPF) are an efficient way to characterize pore space anisotropy, ie,
the average pore shape and orientation. They are determined by impregnating rocks with …

Geoscientists are confronted with the challenge of assessing nonlinear phenomena that
result from multiphysics coupling across multiple scales from the quantum level to the scale …

Magnetic pore fabrics (MPFs) are a promising approach to explore the 3D pore space of
rocks. There exist empirical relationships between the orientation, degree, and shape of …

To understand the evolution of stress-induced elastic wave anisotropy, three triaxial
experiments were performed on sandstone specimens with bedding orientations parallel …
