Flow in Porous Media with Fractures of Varying Aperture [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2022 We study single-phase flow in a fractured porous medium at a macroscopic scale that allows to model fractures individually. The flow is governed by Darcy's law in both fractures and porous matrix. We derive a new mixed-dimensional model, where fractures are represented by $(n-1)$-dimensional interfaces between $n$-dimensional subdomains for $n\ge 2 ...

Dynamics of fractures in quenched disordered media [PDF]
Physical Review E, 1998 We introduce a model for fractures in quenched disordered media. This model has a deterministic extremal dynamics, driven by the energy function of a network of springs (Born Hamiltonian). The breakdown is the result of the cooperation between the external field and the quenched disorder.

An improved wave equation of fractured-porous media for predicting reservoir permeability
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 The wave characteristics of fractured-porous media can be utilized for permeability identification; however, further research is necessary to enhance the accuracy of this identification. A novel wave equation for fractured-porous media is formulated, and

Delayed Fracture in Porous Media [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2005 The fracture of porous media subjected to a constant load is studied. Contrary to homogeneous solids in which fracture usually happens instantaneously at a well-defined breaking strength, the fracture of a porous medium can occur with a delay, allowing us to quantify the average lifetime of the unbroken material.

Capillary Fracturing in Granular Media [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2012 We study the displacement of immiscible fluids in deformable, noncohesive granular media. Experimentally, we inject air into a thin bed of water-saturated glass beads and observe the invasion morphology. The control parameters are the injection rate, the bead size, and the confining stress.

Reactive Flow in Fractured Porous Media [PDF]
, 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.
