Challenges, models, and algorithms for flow and transport simulations in deep reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Deep reservoirs are considered a promising resource for future energy supply, but current reservoir simulation technologies may face certain challenges if they are directly used in specific scenarios in deep reservoir development. Models and algorithms were developed to resolve these challenges, including a better phase equilibrium model, a better ...

Two‐phase model for the excavation analysis in partially saturated soft soils using the particle finite element method

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 145-186, 10 February 2023., 2023
Abstract A two‐phase velocity‐pressure stabilized formulation is proposed for the numerical analysis of mechanized excavations in partially saturated soft soils using the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM). The fully coupled formulation is based on the theory of porous media in association with the Soil Water Characteristic Curve and the porosity ...

Data‐driven analysis of the spatial dependence of grouting efficiency during tunnel excavation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Prediction of grouting efficiency using machine learning is enhanced by adopting a training strategy that accounts for the grouting process across multiple rounds. Abstract Grouting with water–cement mixtures is the most widely used and cost‐effective method for managing excess water inflow during tunnel construction.

Trade‐offs among restored ecosystem functions are context‐dependent in Mediterranean‐type regions

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Global biodiversity hotspots, including Mediterranean‐type ecosystems worldwide, are highly threatened by global change that alters biodiversity, ecosystem functions, and services. Some restoration activities enhance ecosystem functions by reintroducing plant species based on known relationships between plant traits and ecosystem processes.

How to Assess Knowledge Cumulation in Environmental Governance Research? Conceptual and Empirical Explorations

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental governance research (EGR) has been criticized for not being cumulative, despite the importance of cumulative knowledge for evidence‐informed decision‐making in addressing global sustainability problems. However, defining, measuring, and assessing knowledge cumulation in EGR remain challenging.
