Oil emulsions in naturally fractured Porous Media
Most of the studies regarding the formation and stability of emulsions focus on the conditioning and management of crude oil on surface facilities. Since a great deal of the crude oil produced is in the form of stable emulsions, it is often claimed that ...

In 1923, Karl Terzaghi developed the theory of soil consolidation in which he introduced the concept of effective stress (ES). Over the past century, various theoretical aspects have been unraveled regarding the Effective Stress Principle (ESP) and the ...

A Darcy–Brinkman model of fractures in porous media
For a fully-coupled Darcy-Stokes system describing the exchange of fluid and stress balance across the interface between a saturated porous medium and an open very narrow channel, the limiting problem is characterized as the width of the channel converges to zero. It is proven that the limit problem is a fully-coupled system of Darcy flow in the porous

Dual Virtual Element Methods for Discrete Fracture Matrix models
The accurate description of fluid flow and transport in fractured porous media is of paramount importance to capture the macroscopic behavior of an oil reservoir, a geothermal system, or a CO2 sequestration site, to name few applications.
