Numerical treatment of temporal-fractional porous medium model occurring in fractured media

Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2023
This paper proposes a temporal-fractional porous medium model (T-FPMM) for describing the co-current and counter-current imbibition, which arises in a water-wet fractured porous media. The correlation between the co-current and counter-current imbibition

Smeared fractures: a promising approach to model transfers in fractured media [PDF]

, 2004
Publisher Summary In the field of nuclear waste storage, special interest is put on modeling transfer processes in fractured media. It remains a challenging task due to the large contrasts in the properties of different units of the medium, the geometrical complexity of the system, and the high level of uncertainties for flow and transport parameters.

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.

The Lupus Damage Index Revision Program: Results From the Item Generation and Reduction Phases

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective A data‐driven and expert/patient consensus‐based project to develop a revised Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Damage Index (SDI) is under way supported by SLICC, ACR, and the Lupus Foundation of America. Our objective is to report the item generation and reduction phase results

Employment Trajectories of Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Factors Driving Transitions Between States

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) significantly impacts employment capacity. This study aimed to investigate the impact of burden of disease activity, damage, and treatment on employment outcomes and transitions in patients with SLE. Methods Using data from a single center, we analyzed employment transitions, adjusted mean disease activity ...

Karl Popper and the Mechanisms of Hydrogen Embrittlement

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Representation of the beginning of loss of ductility rather than embrittlement. Small concentrations of hydrogen in a diffusible form within iron are well‐established to harm the mechanical integrity of steels. There are theories that attempt to explain the pernicious role of hydrogen.

Significance of Low‐Velocity Zones on Solute Retention in Rough Fractures

Water Resources Research
Natural fractures are characterized by high internal heterogeneity. This internal variability is the cause of flow channeling, which in turn leads to contaminant transport taking place primarily along the high‐velocity channels. Mass exchange between the

Groundwater age dating in fractured rock using 4He data

Journal of Hydrology X, 2019
Using environmental tracers to date groundwater age in fractured systems is difficult since mass exchange processes between fractures and matrix might mask the actual distribution of groundwater velocity, thus leading to biased results.

An efficient 3D cell-based discrete fracture-matrix flow model for digitally captured fracture networks

International Journal of Coal Science & Technology, 2023
Complex hydraulic fracture networks are critical for enhancing permeability in unconventional reservoirs and mining industries. However, accurately simulating the fluid flow in realistic fracture networks (compared to the statistical fracture networks ...
