Rock ty** is a process through which reservoir layers are classified into distinct units with
similar geological conditions. The Kozeny-Carman's equation is commonly used for rock …

The non-isothermal deformation of soft mudrocks or clay soils is one of the most critical
issues in energy and environmental related geotechnics. Clay-related geomaterials hold …

Owing to the shape and size polydispersities of grains, transport paths in granular media are
always tortuous. In general, the tortuosity of a transport path affects the fluid flow and mass …

Gas hydrates are ice-like crystalline solids that form in marine sediments or permafrost
layers. The inhomogeneous distribution of the hydrate will form different hydrate patterns …

Pore scale variables (eg, porosity, grain size) are important indexes to predict the hydraulic
properties of porous geomaterials. X-ray images from ten types of intact sandstones and …

This paper presents a new finite element method (FEM) model to simulate the thermo-hydro-
mechanical (THM) responses of water-saturated clay soils. The model can account for the …

Massive hydraulic fracturing treatments have been used to produce hydrocarbons from tight
glutenite oil reservoirs through both vertical and horizontal wells. Some tight glutenite …

Complex composition and intricate pore-scale structure of frozen soils poses significant
challenges in reliably and efficiently obtaining their permeability. In this study, we propose a …

Mechanical and hydraulic properties significantly affect the design of foamed cement (FC)
involved in various engineering projects. However, pore-scale evolution of the compressive …

Based on the tortuous capillary network model, the relationship between anisotropic
permeability and rock normal strain, namely the anisotropic dynamic permeability model …
