A 3D Computational Study of Effective Medium Methods Applied to Fractured Media
This work evaluates and improves upon existing effective medium methods for permeability upscaling in fractured media. Specifically, we are concerned with the asymmetric self-consistent, symmetric self-consist...

Open AccessUpscaling of Non-isothermal Reactive Porous Media Flow with Changing Porosity
Motivated by rock–fluid interactions occurring in a geothermal reservoir, we present a two-dimensional pore scale model of a periodic porous medium consisting of void space and grains, with fluid flow through ...

Open AccessUpscaling of the Coupling of Hydromechanical and Thermal Processes in a Quasi-static Poroelastic Medium
We undertake a formal derivation of a linear poro-thermo-elastic system within the framework of quasi-static deformation. This work is based upon the well-known derivation of the quasi-static poroelastic equat...

Finite-Volume Discretisations for Flow in Fractured Porous Media
Over the last decades, finite-volume discretisations for flow in porous media have been extended to handle situations where fractures dominate the flow. Successful discretisations have been based on the discre...

Open AccessFlow in Fractured Porous Media: A Review of Conceptual Models and Discretization Approaches
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 applications, as connected fract...

Open AccessNumerical Modelling of Convection-Driven Cooling, Deformation and Fracturing of Thermo-Poroelastic Media
Convection-driven cooling in porous media influences thermo-poro-mechanical stresses, thereby causing deformation. These processes are strongly influenced by the presence of fractures, which dominate flow and ...

Article
Open AccessSimulation of Reactive Transport in Fractured Porous Media
Numerical simulations of reactive transport in fractured porous media require the solution of coupled physical and chemical processes that depend on the fractures. Such coupled processes are described by a sys...

Open AccessNumerical Simulations of Viscous Fingering in Fractured Porous Media
The effect of heterogeneity induced by highly permeable fracture networks on viscous miscible fingering in porous media is examined using high-resolution numerical simulations. We consider the planar injection...
