Permeability of Fractured Media under Confining Pressure: A Simplified Model
An elastic-plastic model was developed to describe the deformation and permeability of fractured rocks under confining pressure. Elastic and elastic-plastic contact models were used in the model to analyze the deformations of a representative element containing a single fracture under various confining pressures. The present work utilized elements from contact mechanics and viscous flows to der...
متن کاملa Simplified Model of Distributed Parameter Systems
A generalized simplified model for describing the dynamic behavior of distributed parameter systems is proposed. The various specific characteristics of gain and phase angle of distributed parameter systems are investigated from frequency response formulation and complex plane representation of the proposed simplified model. The complex plane investigation renders some important inequality cons...
متن کاملStochastic analysis of transient saturated flow through heterogeneous fractured porous media: A double-permeability approach
In this paper we use a double-porosity/double-permeability approach to study transient, saturated flow in heterogeneous, fractured porous media. The spatial variabilities in both the fracture and matrix continua motivate us to treat some of the fracture and matrix medium properties as stochastic processes. Hence flow through heterogeneous, fractured porous media is also amenable to stochastic a...
متن کاملA risk assessment tool for contaminated sites in low-permeability fractured media.
A risk assessment tool for contaminated sites in low-permeability fractured media is developed, based on simple transient and steady-state analytical solutions. The discrete fracture (DF) tool, which explicitly accounts for the transport along fractures, covers different source geometries and history (including secondary sources) and can be applied to a wide range of compounds. The tool success...
متن کاملUpscaling of Hydraulic Properties of Fractured Porous Media: Full Permeability Tensor and Continuum Scale Simulations
The simulation of flow and transport phenomena in fractured media is a challenging problem. Despite existing advances in computer capabilities, the fact that fractures can occur over a wide range of scales within porous media compromises the development of detailed flow simulations. Current discrete approaches are limited to systems that contain a small number of fractures. Alternatively, conti...
