Transitions of dissolution patterns in rough fractures

T Wang, R Hu, Z Yang, CX Zhou… - Water Resources …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Key Points We visualize and quantify three distinct dissolution patterns in radial rough
fractures We propose a theoretical model to predict the transitions of dissolution patterns …

Connectivity enhancement due to film flow in porous media

M Moura, EG Flekkøy, KJ Måløy, G Schäfer… - Physical Review …, 2019 - APS
We study the effects of connectivity enhancement due to film flow phenomena on the

Dissolution phase diagram in radial geometry

L Xu, P Szymczak, R Toussaint, EG Flekkøy… - Frontiers in …, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Fractures play an important role as flow paths in porous media. When an undersaturated
reactive fluid is flowing in a fracture, the dissolution process will alter the flow paths locally …

Textural and chemical evolution during dedolomitization: A case study of the Benassal Formation, Maestrat Basin, Spain

S Centrella, NE Beaudoin, C Trebucq… - Marine and Petroleum …, 2023 - Elsevier
The process of dedolomitization (dolomite calcitization) has been the subject of several
studies, but the mechanisms that control it are still not fully understood. Dedolomitization, ie …

Fractional-derivative models for non-Fickian transport in a single fracture and its extension

X Li, Y Zhang, DM Reeves, C Zheng - Journal of Hydrology, 2020 - Elsevier
Fractures are ubiquitous in brittle geological media, providing critical paths for pollutant
transport. Analytical solutions describing Fickian diffusion of pollutants in a single fracture or …

Visualizing and evaluating wormholes formation dynamics under flow competition in an intermediate-scale dissolution experiment

M Trabucchi, DF Garcia, J Carrera - Science of The Total Environment, 2023 - Elsevier
Wormholes are highly conductive channels that develop in high solubility rocks. They are
