We describe in this paper the theoretical background for the electrokinetics in rocks and in
porous media, to be included in the special issue “Electrokinetics in Earth Sciences” of …

The seismo-electromagnetic method (SEM) can be used for non-invasive subsurface
exploration. It shows interesting results for detecting fluids such as water, oil, gas, CO 2, or …

Despite its widespread use in petrophysics, tortuosity remains a poorly understood concept.
Tortuosity can have various meanings when used by physicists, engineers or geologists to …

An exact stiffness formalism is presented to study harmonic and transient wave propagation
in multilayered dry, saturated and unsaturated isotropic poroelastic media. Smeulders' …

Due to the high permeability of water flow in crushed rocks, flow catastrophes and water
inrush accidents are apt to take place in the broken zones of aquifers in coal mining …

Oscillatory pumping tests were conducted at the Boise Hydrogeophysical Research Site. A
periodic pressure signal is generated by pumping and injecting water into the aquifer …

The effectiveness of transmitting underground water in rock fractures is strongly influenced
by the widths of the fractures and their interconnections. However, the geometries needed …

含裂缝多孔介质渗透率预测是非常规油气资源勘探开发的一个紧迫问题. 现有多孔介质岩石物理
模型通常利用圆形孔管模拟宏观岩石孔隙空间, 难以定量描述软孔隙/裂缝在压力作用下的闭合 …

A homogeneous anisotropic effective-medium model for saturated thinly layered sediments
is introduced. It is obtained by averaging over many layers with different poroelastic moduli …

The present article reports on a formal derivation of a macroscopic model for unsteady one-
phase incompressible flow in rigid and periodic porous media using an upscaling technique …
