Abstract:Petrophysical
and mechanical properties of kerogen are
difficult
to obtain through conventional techniques due to length scale limitations.
Characterization of kerogen requires the isolation of organic materials
from the rock matrix, which is associated with a high probability
of mechanical damage or chemical alteration of the properties. Alternatively,
computational modeling and molecular representation of kerogens can
be used to simulate the outcomes of the experimental work. Volumetric
and thermodynamics mo… Show more
