Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract The migration‐clogging‐sealing process of microparticle suspensions in constricted channels is highly relevant to geotechnical, hydraulic, and environmental engineering. In this study, a coupled lattice Boltzmann‐discrete element method is employed, incorporating dense‐particle corrections into the classical partially saturated method and ...

Recent Developments in Multiscale and Multiphase Modelling of the Hydraulic Fracturing Process [PDF]
, 2015 Recently hydraulic fracturing of rocks has received much attention not only for its economic importance but also for its potential environmental impact. The hydraulically fracturing technique has been widely used in the oil (EOR) and gas (EGR) industries,

Quantitative and visual analysis of proppant transport in rough fractures
Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering, 2016 Abstract The consensus reached in the literature is that the roughness of fractures plays a crucial role on proppant transport affecting the aperture sustainability and conductivity of hydraulic fractures. To clarify this, an experimental scheme and analysis are presented in this paper. Propping agents were introduced into seven different transparent

Impact of Inter‐Well Stress Interference on Multifracture Propagation in Tight Reservoirs
Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 347-363, January 2026.This study presents a integrated computational‐experimental framework for modeling complex fracture propagation. Using a novel cell‐based fracture element approach with defined geometric and mechanical parameters, we simulate crack paths under varying stress conditions (e.g., SH‐Sh = 130 psi).

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Concrete is the most widely used construction material globally, but it is inherently prone to various factors such as environmental conditions, mechanical stress, and chemical reactions. Stresses such as cracks can significantly reduce the lifespan of concrete structures, leading to increased maintenance costs and environmental impact.
