A hybrid-mixed finite element method for single-phase Darcy flow in fractured porous media [PDF]
Advances in Water Resources, 2021 We present a hybrid-mixed finite element method for a novel hybrid-dimensional model of single-phase Darcy flow in a fractured porous media. In this model, the fracture is treated as an $(d-1)$-dimensional interface within the $d$-dimensional fractured ...

Lab and Field Scale Modeling of Near Miscible CO2 Injection in Different Porous Mediums [PDF]
Journal of Petroleum Science and Technology, 2015 The main purpose of this investigation is to study the effect of near miscible CO2 injection in different porous mediums on both lab and field scales. This effect can be traced by the change of two-phase gas-oil relative permeability curves. In this work,

Determining the REV for Fracture Rock Mass Based on Seepage Theory
Geofluids, 2017 Seepage problems of the fractured rock mass have always been a heated topic within hydrogeology and engineering geology. The equivalent porous medium model method is the main method in the study of the seepage of the fractured rock mass and its ...

Correspondence between one- and two-equation models for solute\ud transport in two-region heterogeneous porous media [PDF]
, 2012 In this work, we study the transient behavior of upscaled models for solute transport in two-region porous media. We focus on the following three models: (1) a time non-local, two-equation model (2eq-nlt).

Self‐consistency of a heterogeneous continuum porous medium representation of a fractured medium [PDF]
Water Resources Research, 2000 A possible approach to representing fractured rocks is to use heterogeneous continuum porous medium (CPM) models in which each grid block has an effective permeability appropriate to represent the network of fractures within the block. It needs to be demonstrated that the approach is self‐consistent; that is, the effective permeability on a length ...
