An X–FEM technique for numerical simulation of variable-density flow in fractured porous media [PDF]
MethodsX, 2023 Solute transport is one of the major topics in geological studies. Fracture is a significant characteristic of natural porous media, where the solute can transport due to its higher density with respect to the density of fluid.

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

Unstable Density-Driven Flow in Fractured Porous Media: The Fractured Elder Problem
Fluids, 2019 The Elder problem is one of the well-known examples of an unstable density-driven flow (DDF) and solute transport in porous media. The goal of this research is to investigate the influence of fracture networks on this benchmark problem due to the great ...

Rigorous Upscaling of Unsaturated Flow in Fractured Porous Media
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, 2020 This paper studies a mathematical model for flow in an unsaturated two-dimensional porous medium consisting of two porous matrix blocks separated by a thin, porous fracture. The flow is governed by the Richards equation in both blocks, as well as in the fracture (subdomains).

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.

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.
