Abstract:A porous medium is a highly complex domain, in which various processes can take place at different scales. Examples in this sense are the multi-phase flow and reactive transport. Here, due to processes like dissolution or precipitation, or chemical deposition, which are encountered at the scale of pores (the micro-scale), the local structure and geometry of the pores may change, impacting the fluid flow. Since these micro-scale processes depend on the model unknowns (e.g., the solute concentration), free bound… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
