Mineral grain size heterogeneity is one of the fundamental reasons leading to differences in
rock mechanical behaviours. Several indices have been proposed to quantify grain size …

To characterize the influence of reservoir conditions upon multiphase flow, we calculated
fluid displacements (drainage processes) in 3D pore spaces of Berea sandstone using two …

The cyclic gas injection-extraction process during underground gas storage (UGS) operation
may alter the pore structure and stress sensitivity in the reservoir rock, which can affect the …

We consider an efficient preconditioner for a boundary integral equation (BIE) formulation of
the two‐dimensional Stokes equations in porous media. While BIEs are well‐suited for …

For developing the technique of Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS), the estimation of
injected water distribution is essential. To estimate water saturation changes deep under the …

Fluid-flow tests and simultaneous measurements of water saturation (Sw), complex
resistivity and elastic wave velocity were conducted in the laboratory to elucidate the …

In this study, we attempt to clarify the heterogeneous CO 2 distribution in homogeneous and
high-permeability porous sandstone (Mt. Simon sandstone: 105 mD) using both physical …

The interplay of fluid flow and medium grains' deformation/movement in unconsolidated
porous media was numerically studied. The numerical simulations were done through …

We calculated CO 2 displacements in 3D natural sandstone (digital rock model) under
various reservoir conditions using two-phase lattice Boltzmann (LB) simulations, and …

The spontaneous imbibition of fracturing fluid in the shale matrix is one of the main reasons
for the low hydraulic fracturing flowback rate. The distribution characteristics of fracturing …
