Switchable imbibition in nanoporous gold [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2014 Spontaneous imbibition enables the elegant propelling of nano-flows because of the dominance of capillarity at small length scales. The imbibition kinetics are, however, solely determined by the static geometry of the porous host, the capillarity, and the fluidity of the imbibed liquid. This makes active control particularly challenging.

A Critical Review of Osmosis-Associated Imbibition in Unconventional Formations
Energies, 2021 In petroleum engineering, imbibition is one of the most important elements for the hydraulic fracturing and water flooding processes, when extraneous fluids are introduced to the reservoir.

Capillary Imbibition into Converging Tubes: Beating Washburn’s Law and the Optimal Imbibition of Liquids [PDF]
Langmuir, 2016 We consider the problem of capillary imbibition into an axisymmetric tube for which the tube radius decreases in the direction of increasing imbibition. For tubes with constant radius, imbibition is described by Washburn's law (referred to here as the BCLW law to recognize the contributions of Bell, Cameron, and Lucas that predate Washburn).

Effect of electroosmotic flow on brine imbibition in porous media
Water Science and Engineering, 2009 Based on Darcy's Law and the Helmholta-Smoluchowski equation, an imbibition velocity formula for the water phase with an electric field was deduced, showing that the imbibition velocity with an electric field is to various extents not only related to the

Improvement and effectiveness analysis of dynamic/static imbibition experiments.
PLoS ONEIn low-permeability fractured reservoirs, there is a generalized fluid displacement between the replacement fluid in the fracture and the matrix crude oil. This imbibition behavior plays a crucial role in the development of this type of reservoir.

Physicochemical mechanism of water phase imbibition in shale reservoirs [PDF]
Youqicang pingjia yu kaifa, 2023 Shale gas reservoirs, which develope micro-nano pore throats and fractures, have high clay mineral content, and strong heterogeneity of porosity. Therefore, large-scale hydraulic fracturing is usually needed to realize the effective exploitation.

Imbibition and germination in the seeds of Glinus lotoides L.
Acta Agrobotanica, 2013 Imbibition in the seeds of Glinus lotoides L. varied under different temperatures. The optimum temperatures for imbibition and germination were different.
