This paper introduces a new discrete fracture model accounting for non-isothermal compositional multiphase Darcy flows and complex networks of fractures with intersecting, immersed and non immersed fractures. The so called…
The paper develops an unfitted finite element method for solving the Darcy system of equations posed in a network of fractures embedded in a porous matrix. The approach builds on the Hughes--Masud stabilized formulation of the Darcy problem…
This paper deals with the numerical modeling of flow around and through a porous obstacle by a reduced order model (ROM) obtained by Galerkin projection of the Navier-Stokes equations onto a Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) reduced…
Modeling coupled processes in fractured porous media -- flow, deformation, fracture mechanics, and thermal/chemical effects -- often relies on mixed dimensional multiphysics formulations. These systems are nonlinear and depend on physical…
A numerical model was developed for flows involving an interface between a homogenous fluid and a porous medium. The numerical model is based on the finite volume method with body-fitted and multi-block grids. The Darcy-Forchheimer extended…
In this paper, we will consider the generalized Forchheimer flows for slightly compressible fluids. Using Muskat's and Ward's general form of Forchheimer equations, we describe the fluid dynamics by a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation…
In this paper, we present a multiscale method for simulations of the multicontinua unsaturated flow problems in heterogeneous fractured porous media. The mathematical model is described by the system of Richards equations for each continuum…
In a porous medium featuring heterogeneous permeabilities, a wide range of fluid velocities may be recorded, so that significant inertial and frictional effects may arise in high-speed regions. In such parts, the link between pressure…
We present a comprehensive workflow to simulate single-phase flow and transport in fractured porous media using the discrete fracture matrix approach. The workflow has three primary parts: (1) a method for conforming mesh generation of and…
Predicting the permeability of porous media in saturated and partially saturated conditions is of crucial importance in many geo-engineering areas, from water resources to vadose zone hydrology or contaminant transport predictions. Many…
This article presents a novel system of flow equations that models the pressure deficit of a reservoir considered as a triple continuous medium formed by the rock matrix, vugular medium and fracture. In non-conventional reservoirs, the…
The box method discrete fracture model (Box-DFM) is an important finite volume-based discrete fracture model (DFM) to simulate flows in fractured porous media. In this paper, we investigate a simple but effective extension of the box method…
A new numerical scheme is proposed for flow computation in complex discrete fracture networks. The method is based on a three-field formulation of the Darcy law for the description of the hydraulic head on the fractures and uses a cost…
The two-phase oil-water flow in natural fractured reservoirs and its numerical methods are introduced in this paper, where the fracture is modeled by the dual porosity method. Efficient numerical method, including the finite difference…
Understanding and controlling fracture propagation is one of the most challenging engineering problems, especially in the oil and gas sector, groundwater hydrology and geothermal energy applications. Predicting the fracture orientation…
The nonlinear Forchheimer equations are used to describe the dynamics of fluid flows in porous media when Darcy's law is not applicable. In this article, we consider the generalized Forchheimer flows for slightly compressible fluids and…
In this paper, we develop a multiscale finite element method for solving flows in fractured media. Our approach is based on Generalized Multiscale Finite Element Method (GMsFEM), where we represent the fracture effects on a coarse grid via…
Displacement flows are common in hydraulic fracturing, as fracking fluids of different composition are injected sequentially in the fracture. The injection of an immiscible fluid at the center of a liquid-filled fracture results in the…
Modeling of water and gas flow in low-permeability media is an important topic for a number of engineering such as exploitation of tight gas and disposal of high-level radioactive waste. It has been well documented in the literature that…
Fluid-induced slip of fractures is characterized by strong multiphysics couplings. Three physical processes are considered: Flow, rock deformation and fracture deformation. The fractures are represented as lower-dimensional objects embedded…
