煤层气开采过程中煤层所受应力、孔隙压力的变化以及气体的吸附解吸，会导致煤体骨架和孔隙体积发生变化，改变煤层的渗流能力。基于多孔弹性理论、渗流力学并考虑吸附变形，建立了煤层压裂水平井的物理模型，并建立了煤体变形和气体流动的全耦合数学模型，推导出了渗透率的动态变化模型。利用数值分析软件Comsol Multiphysics对煤层气的开发特征及规律进行了数值模拟，最终实现对模型中关键参数的敏感性和压裂裂缝参数的影响进行分析。 Read More
A correct design and control of the irrigation cycles is very important for the correct and efficient grow of the crops. It is well known that a correct design of the irrigation cycles increases its efficiency and reduces the amount of water required. An important objective in the ... Read More
Immiscible two-phase flow in porous materials is a process of significant scientific and applied interest encountered in numerous technological applications related to energy and the environment (e.g. subsurface water flows, petroleum recovery, soil remediation and geologic carbon ... Read More
Permafrost is defined as soil which remains frozen for at least two consecutive years. In the Swiss Alps, it is a widespread phenomenon with a great impact on the landscape particularly regarding natural hazards. The occurrence of permafrost is not only influenced by meteorological ... Read More
The 3D knowledge of complex geological systems and their integration into hydrogeological models is a prerequisite to study the dynamics of hydraulic processes at different scales. However, the integration of constructed 3D geological models (GOCAD©) into numerical groundwater flow ... Read More
Black-oil simulators are commonly used in petroleum reservoir engineering for the prediction of oil production, especially during the earlier stages of oil-field exploitation, while also serving to guide pressure maintenance strategies in the longer term. Such models account for fluid ... Read More
To assess the safety deep geological repositories for nuclear waste, it is important to have a clear understanding of groundwater flow at the interface between the storage vault and the fractured rock. Traditional approaches for modelling groundwater often consider both the geological ... Read More
Geologic carbon storage that involves injecting carbon dioxide (CO2) into a subsurface sequestration site provides the vital approach for reducing CO2 emissions into atmosphere and thus addressing climate change issue. One challenge associated with CO2 geologic storage is that pore ... Read More
Mechanical simulation at one pair of asperity contact has been conducted using the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and the Structural Mechanics Module to study the sliding friction of rock fractures surface as real fracture surface contact slides driven by pressure solution. The evolving ... Read More
Field observations suggest that two-phase "heat-pipe" processes are active around magmatic intrusions. We are numerically testing the viability of this process around a volcanic sill, embedded in wet sediment. The model focuses on the heat transported by water in the vapor and liquid ... Read More
