stress waves contain useful information about the properties of porous materials; they can be recovered through different non-destructive testing methods such as crosswell, vertical seismic profile, borehole logging as well as sonic tests. in all these methods, it is crucial to assess the effects of frequency on wave attributes including velocity and intrinsic attenuation. the dependency of per...

The permeability and tortuosity of pore-scale two and three-dimensional random porous media were calculated using the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Effects of geometrical parameters of medium on permeability and tortuosity were investigated as well. Two major models of random porous media were reconstructed by computerized tomography method: Randomly distributed rectangular obstacles in a uni...

This paper explores the hypothesis that chlorinated solvent releases evolve temporally and spatially. A two-layer system is considered involving a transmissive layer (e.g. sand) situated above a low permeability layer (e.g. silt). A DNAPL like source is present in the transmissive layer at the upgradient edge of the model domain at the contact between the two layers. A constant source is active...

this work is a primary achievement in studying the co2 and n2–oil systems. to predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a shan-chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2d porous media is developed. periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the guo scheme for the external body force (i.e., the pressure gradient...
