Fractured rock aquifers are susceptible to contamination, with metal (loid) s rapidly migrating
from poorly developed overburden to the fractured rock vadose zone and thus into …

Darcy's law is the fundamental equation that is used to describe the flow of fluids within a
classical porous medium with a definite hydraulic conductivity and with a porosity varying …

A large number of studies were carried out in the past to analyze the significance of colloids
and microbes in remediating groundwater aquifers contaminated with petroleum …

This paper presents a numerical model to investigate the migration of BTEX (benzene,
toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene) within a fractured aquifer system at the scale of a single …

This study presents a numerical model to investigate sequential biodegradation of dissolved
benzene, toluene, and xylene (BTX) within a fractured aquifer system under the presence of …

Wettability remains one of the critical multi-phase fluid flow parameters while characterizing
an oilwater petroleum reservoir system. Treating the reservoir to be either completely oil-wet …

Fluid flow through a porous medium is of great significance in various applications that
includes groundwater flow; contaminant hydrogeology; enhanced geothermal energy …

A sound knowledge on the estimation of reservoir permeability becomes fundamental for a
precise prediction of production forecasts. The problem becomes further complex for multi …

The aim of the present thesis is to study the transport and deposition of small solid particles
in fracture flows. First, single-phase fracture ow is investigated in order to assess the validity …
