The last decade has seen a strong increase of research into flows in fractured porous media,
mainly related to subsurface processes but also in materials science and biological …

Underground coal mining has a strong disturbance on surrounding rock strata, causing
inevitable water inflow into mined spaces, which seriously affects safety production. Mine …

This study investigates the impacts of surface roughness on the nonlinear fluid flow through
three-dimensional (3D) self-affine rock fractures, whose original surface roughness is …

This study experimentally investigated the nonlinear flow characteristics at low Reynolds
number through rough-walled fractures subjected to a wide range of confining pressures …

Transient pulse tests were performed on single rock fractures at different confining
pressures. A new data analysis method based on polynomial fitting was introduced to …

This study experimentally analyzes the nonlinear flow characteristics and channelization of
fluid through rough-walled fractures during the shear process using a shear-flow …

Immiscible fluid‐fluid displacement in permeable media is important in many subsurface
processes, including enhanced oil recovery and geological CO2 sequestration. Controlled …

Fractured rocks in the subsurface are ubiquitous, and the dynamics of mass transfer in
fractured rocks plays an important role in understanding the problem in engineering geology …

To investigate the influence of geometric characteristics of deformable rough fractures under
confining stresses on the behaviors of non-Darcy flow, four fractured sandstone specimens …

Fracture surface morphology significantly affects fluid flow in rock fractures and has attracted
considerable attention in many seepage-related fields. Fluid flow in rough-walled fractures is …
