Transient flows in active porous media [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2017
Stimuli-responsive materials that modify their shape in response to changes in environmental conditions -- such as solute concentration, temperature, pH, and stress -- are widespread in nature and technology. Applications include micro- and nanoporous materials used in filtration and flow control.

On the hydrodynamics and heat convection of an impinging external flow upon a cylinder with transpiration and embedded in a porous medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper extends the existing studies of heat convection by an external flow impinging upon a flat porous insert to that on a circular cylinder inside a porous medium.

Variable-density flow in porous media [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2006
Steady-state distributions of water potential and salt concentration in coastal aquifers are typically modelled by the Henry problem, which consists of a fully coupled system of flow and transport equations. Coupling arises from the dependence of water density on salt concentration.

Nanogel formation of polymer solutions flowing through porous media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A gelation process was seen to occur when Boger fluids made from aqueous solutions of polyacrylamide (PAA) and NaCl flowed through porous media with certain characteristics.

MODELING WELLS IN POROUS MEDIA FLOW

open access: yesMathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, 2000
In this paper, we prove the existence of weak solutions for mathematical models of miscible and immiscible flow through porous medium. An important difficulty comes from the modelization of the wells, which does not allow us to use classical variational formulations of the equations.

Reducing indoor particle exposure using mobile air purifiers—Experimental and numerical analysis

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
Aerosol particles are one of the main routes of transmission of COVID-19. Mobile air purifiers are used to reduce the risk of infection indoors. We focus on an air purifier that generates a defined volumetric air flow through a highly efficient filter ...

A two-pressure model for slightly compressible single phase flow in bi-structured porous media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Problems involving flow in porous media are ubiquitous in many natural and engineered systems. Mathematical modeling of such systems often relies on homogenization of pore-scale equations and macroscale continuum descriptions.

Reactive Flow in Fractured Porous Media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this work we present a model reduction procedure to derive a hybrid-dimensional framework for the mathematical modeling of reactive transport in fractured porous media. Fractures are essential pathways in the underground which allow fast circulation of the fluids present in the rock matrix, often characterized by low permeability.

Non-Newtonian effects in the peristaltic flow of a Maxwell fluid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We analyzed the effect of viscoelasticity on the dynamics of fluids in porous media by studying the flow of a Maxwell fluid in a circular tube, in which the flow is induced by a wave traveling on the tube wall.

Coupling of two-phase flow in fractured-vuggy reservoir with filling medium

open access: yesOpen Physics, 2017
Caves in fractured-vuggy reservoir usually contain lots of filling medium, so the two-phase flow in formations is the coupling of free flow and porous flow, and that usually leads to low oil recovery.
