Two-phase flow in fractured media plays an important role in various subsurface processes,
including enhanced oil recovery and geological carbon sequestration. The fluid–fluid …

We present a systematic comparison study of simulating two‐phase flow (drainage) in single
heterogeneous fractures by using two fundamentally different approaches, namely, a …

The void space geometry of rough fractures is one of most important factors controlling two-
phase flow in fractured media. This paper presents a numerical study on the effect of …

Accurate modeling of flow instabilities requires computational tools able to deal with several
interacting scales, from the scale at which fingers are triggered up to the scale at which their …

Preferential infiltration is proposed to occur under atmospheric pressure but in unsaturated
soil. Its domain is positioned between the domains of Richards' equation and Darcy's law …

In this work, we study gravity‐driven flow of water in the presence of air on a synthetic
surface intersected by a horizontal fracture and investigate the importance of droplet and …

Interphase mass transfer in variable aperture fractures occurs in many problems where two
immiscible fluids are present, such as dissolution of dense nonaqueous phase liquids into …

Understanding of the entrapment and dissolution behavior of dense non-aqueous phase
liquids (DNAPLs) in single fractures is important for modeling contaminant flux generation …

Understanding unsaturated flow behaviors in fractured rocks is essential for various
applications. A fundamental process in this regard is flow splitting at fracture intersections …

The gas permeability of fractures in shales provides a crucial foundation for evaluating
subsurface fluid flow in numerous resource and environmental engineering projects. Water …
