Hypothesis The wetting behaviour is a key property of a porous medium that controls
hydraulic conductivity in multiphase flow. While many porous materials, such as …

Results from a series of two‐phase fluid flow experiments in Leopard, Berea, and
Bentheimer sandstones are presented. Fluid configurations are characterized using …

Permeability and formation factor are important properties of a porous medium that only
depend on pore space geometry, and it has been proposed that these transport properties …

The establishment of the representative elementary volume (REV) in studies of porous
media is crucial for linking microscopic structure and pore-scale fluid configurations to …

This paper presents a characterization of the pore structure of tight-pore sandstones of the
Achimov suite and examines the application of Lattice–Boltzmann method (LBM) …

This paper covers a novel micro-level application of image processing in understanding the
topological and petrophysical properties of Indian Gondwana shale using X-ray computed …

After a critical review of available pore-scale analytical and numerical approaches to
estimate permeability of porous media, this paper presents a practical framework to examine …

Chapter Highlights We discuss the modern mathematical tools for studying the topology of
pore space. In Sect. 3.1. Minkowski functionals are introduced through the paradigm of Mark …

The employment of X-ray computed microtomography has been an excellent 3D imaging
technique to explore subsurface multiphase flow and trap** at pore-scale which are …

Challenges of rock absolute permeability prediction of tiny samples are remarkable when
laboratory apparatus is not applicable and there is no pore network modeling. The …
