Enhanced Geothermal Systems
Article
We investigated the sizes of scales above the lateral line in wild and hatchery-reared ayu in the Ouchiyama River, a tributary of the Miya River, to determine useful external markers for stock identification. ...
Article
The temperature distribution at depth is a key variable when assessing the potential of a supercritical geothermal resource as well as a conventional geothermal resource. Data-driven estimation by a machine-le...
Article
We examined the two-phase hydro-mechanical coupled process for subsurface applications. First, we exclusively derived governing equations for capillary pressure of the wetting fluid and pressure of the non-wet...
Article
Engineered T cells are effective therapies against a range of malignancies, but current approaches rely on autologous T cells, which are difficult and expensive to manufacture. Efforts to develop potent alloge...
Article
Pre-clinical and clinical studies have shown that the infusion of CAR T cells with a naive-like (TN) and central memory (TCM) phenotype is associated with prolonged in vivo T cell persistence and superior anti-tu...
Article
The adoptive transfer of T cells redirected to tumor via chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has produced clinical benefits for the treatment of hematologic diseases. To extend this approach to breast cancer, we...
Chapter
Fluid-mineral interaction, over the fracture surface, renders a permanent change of fracture surface geometry. Hydraulic characteristic of fracture is consequently altered in response to the geometric ch...
Chapter
This on coupled hydraulic–mechanical processes in a fault zone. The benchmark is motivated by the “Fault Slip (FS)” of the Mont Terri Project. In this experiment, a fluid injection into a fault is ca...
Chapter
In a geothermal system, unstable fluid density profiles due to temperature variations can trigger the onset and development of free thermal convective processes (J.W. Elder. Transient convection in a porous me...
Article
Fluid–mineral interaction has an irreversible impact on the fracture permeability evolution in the life span of deep geological reservoirs. To investigate the impact, a preliminary study on water–granite inter...
Book
Chapter
This chapter briefly glances at the basic theory of enhanced geothermal reservoir modeling, specifically hydraulic and thermal processes in fractured geological systems, and their numerical solutions with the ...
Chapter
This chapter presents several benchmark examples for demonstrating basics of how to set up OpenGeoSys input files for EGS reservoir modeling and check simulation results mainly using ParaView. Meshes are prepared...
Chapter
The second case study is given for Soultz-sous-Forêts site in France, which represents an enhanced hydrothermal type of EGS reservoirs. Input files for the simulations are available from https:...
Chapter
Welcome to the third volume of the Geoenergy Modeling series. This volume will introduce the reader to the field of modeling enhanced geothermal reservoirs. In this first chapter, we will briefly introduce Enh...
Chapter
Software used in the later benchmark examples and case studies are introduced. All of them are open-source and freely available for scientific research purposes.
Chapter
In the following two chapters, we demonstrate how the numerical simulation can be applied to actual reservoir analysis. The first case study is given for the Groß Schönebeck research site in Germany, which rep...

Chapter
Welcome to the OGS HIGRADE Tutorials on Computational Energy Systems. The first tutorial will introduce the reader to the field of modeling geothermal energy systems. In the beginning chapter we will introduce...
Chapter
There are many alternative methods to solve initial-boundary-value problems arising from flow and transport processes in subsurface systems. In general these methods can be classified into analytical and numer...
