Abstract:The prediction of the first fluidized path of a yield-stress fluid in complex porous media is a challenging yet an important task to understand the fundamentals of fluid flow in several industrial and biological processes. In most cases, the conditions that open this first path are known either through experiments or expensive computations. Here, we present a simple network model to predict the first open channel for a yield-stress fluid in a complex porous medium. For porous media made of non-overlapping disk… Show more
