Poroelasticity equations describe the interaction between fluid flow and solids deformation within a porous medium. Modeling of poroelasticity is coupling between elastic deformation of porous materials and Darcy’s law. Poroelasticity has numerous real world applications such as in ... Read More
The Solargeotherm project is assessing the possibility of using vertical geothermal probes drilled into a rock mass (bedrock) for storing the thermal energy produced by solar panels and later releasing it. The research project relies on the installation of an experimental system and the ... Read More
Geothermal systems represent a large resource that can provide, with a reasonable investment, a very high and cost-effective power generating capacity. Despite its unquestionable potential, geothermal exploitation has long been perceived as limited, mainly because of the dependence from ... Read More
This work investigates the possibility of thermal activation of future tunnels to heat and/or cool the surface buildings or infrastructure such as subways stations. The principle is to insert pipes in the tunnel lining segments, which are connected to a geothermal pump. A heat transfer ... Read More
Based on the heat transfer and seepage theory in porous media, a 2D cross section of a horizontal AGF project is selected and a numerical model is set up, which is based on full coupling of temperature and flow fields by combining physical interfaces of Darcy's Law and Heat Transfer in ...

In this study, based on a bank protection structure engineering at Yangtze River, a 2D water-soil coupling model is established, in which the influence of water level fluctuation on groundwater seepage and soil shear strength is considered. According to the water level measured data of ... Read More
Introduction: This study presents the 3D electromagnetic model in layered media using induction logging tool. This algorithm utilizes electromagnetic wave frequency domain (EWFD) interface of Maxwell equations. Electromagnetic methods are popular tools for the measurement of resistivity ... Read More
Injection of 3-D hot plume blob develops localized and short-term increases in slab surface temperatures, consistent with the Abukuma adakite, Northeast Japan. 3-D mantle flow develops trough of the lowered slab surface temperatures implying along lowered slab surface temperatures, ... Read More
Landfill is currently the most dominating method to dispose wastes, which are caused by the lives of residents and constructions of cities and towns. Because of large amounts of organic substances in landfills, they will undergo continuous microbial degradation, which generates a lot of ... Read More
The detection, characterization, and classification of underground environmental hazardous objects [mines, IEDs, and other unexploded military hardware] is a worldwide problem that needs urgent attention and solution. While electromagnetic sensor technologies have been applied to ... Read More
