In our latest studies, by introducing the novel order-preserving (OP) criterion, we have successfully addressed the widely concerned issue of the previously published mapped weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) schemes that it is…
Experimental investigations of surface forces generally involve two solid bodies of simple and well-defined geometry interacting across a medium. Direct measurement of their surface interaction can be interpreted to reveal fundamental…
The coupled mechanics of fluid-filled granular media controls the behavior of many natural systems such as saturated soils, fault gouge, and landslides. The grain motion and the fluid pressure influence each other: It is well established…
In under-balanced drilling, the bottom-hole pressure is kept below pore pressure, causing pressure dependent influx of reservoir gas into the wellbore that makes the system unstable at low drawdowns. In this paper we propose a feedback…
