In order to study the effect of epoxy resin particles on the low temperature performance and high temperature performance of asphalt mixture, the epoxy resin particles were prepared and the glass transition temperature of epoxy resin particles was measured. The bending test and rutting test were used to study the low temperature and high temperature performance of asphalt mixture mixed with and without the epoxy resin particles. The results show that the increasing of epoxy resin particles content is beneficial to enhance the thickness of the effective asphalt film. With the increasing of the epoxy resin particle content, the low temperature bending stiffness modulus of the asphalt mixture increased firstly and then decreased, while the dynamic stability reduced. It is indicating that the epoxy resin particles can significantly improve the low temperature cracking resistance of asphalt mixture, and is not conducive to the high temperature stability of asphalt mixture.
Understanding the two-phase displacement behaviors of oil and water in porous media under different reservoir development modes for enhanced oil recovery is essential. In this paper, the influence of development measures, such as increasing the injection rate, changing the inlet/outlet position, increasing the water viscosity, and reducing the surface tension coefficient, on oil–water dynamic behaviors was studied using a numerical simulation based on the study of the formation of a high-water-cut channel by water flooding at different injection rates. The results show that blockage and restart occur during displacement in the pore–throat channel and during staggered displacement in different pore channels. With an increase in the injection rate, the recovery increases first and then decreases. All the different development measures can increase the swept area and recovery factor. The recovery factor increases significantly by reducing the surface tension coefficient at medium/high injection rates (≥0.01 m/s) and by increasing the viscosity of the water at low injection rates (<0.01 m/s). The numerical simulation study preliminarily revealed the influence of different development measures on displacement behaviors in the pore model. It thus provides theoretical support for understanding the law of oil and water movement in reservoirs.
