Numerical simulation of fractured imbibition in a shale oil reservoir based on the discrete fracture model

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2022
When a shale oil reservoir contains a mass of clay minerals, the salinity of formation water can reach up to 4.786×103 mol·m−3 and the formation water and low salinity fracturing fluid create significant osmotic pressure during the fracturing process. To

Negative swelling hydrogel enabled by osmotic pressure induced dehydration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Swelling positively in water is a common behavior of hydrogels, which may lead to reduced mechanical performance and stability. Enabling negative swelling represents a promising way to address those issues, but is extremely challenging to realize.

Acoustic and fractal analyses of the mechanical properties and fracture modes of bedding‐containing shale under different seepage pressures

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2020
The mechanical properties and failure modes of shale that contains bedding were analyzed under coupled seepage pressure and stress. In the numerical model, seven sets of shale samples with different dip‐bedding values were considered, and a seepage ...

Osmotic pressure modulates single cell cycle dynamics inducing reversible growth arrest and reactivation of human metastatic cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Biophysical cues such as osmotic pressure modulate proliferation and growth arrest of bacteria, yeast cells and seeds. In tissues, osmotic regulation takes place through blood and lymphatic capillaries and, at a single cell level, water and ...

Polyethylene glycol-b-polylactic acid polymersome elongation through osmotic pressure mediated membrane tension and fusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Polyethylene glycol-b-polylactic acid (PEGPLA) polymersomes elongate under osmotic pressure. Hypertonic NaCl solutions statistically increased the zeta potential from negative to neutral.

Colloid osmotic pressure [PDF]

open access: yesAnaesthesia, 1980
Summary Technical advances have made the bedside measurement of colloid osmotic pressure (COP) a rapid and reproducible test. The principles of measurement are described and the place of COP determinations in the recognition, treatment and prophylaxis of oedematous states is discussed.
