Multiphysics processes in fractured porous media is a research field of importance for several subsurface applications and has received considerable attention over the last decade. The dynamics are characterised by strong couplings between…
Fractures are ubiquitous in the subsurface and strongly affect flow and deformation. The physical shape of the fractures, they are long and thin objects, puts strong limitations on how the effect of this dynamics can be incorporated into…
This paper presents a model where thermo-hydro-mechanical processes are coupled to a deformation model for preexisting fractures. The model is formulated within a discrete-fracture-matrix framework where the rock matrix and the fractures…
A range of phenomena in the subsurface is characterised by the interplay between coupled thermal, hydraulic and mechanical processes and deforming structures such as fractures. Modelling subsurface dynamics can provide valuable…
Models that involve coupled dynamics in a mixed-dimensional geometry are of increasing interest in several applications. Here, we describe the development of a simulation model for flow in fractured porous media, where the fractures and…
The last decade has seen a strong increase of research into flows in fractured porous media, mainly related to subsurface processes, but also in materials science and biological applications. Connected fractures totally dominate…
We introduce a coupled system of PDEs for the modeling of the fluid-fluid and fluid-solid interaction in a poroelastic material with a single static fracture. The fluid flow in the fracture is modeled by a lower-dimensional Darcy equation,…
Flow in fractured porous media is of high relevance in a variety of geotechnical applications, given the fact that they ubiquitously occur in nature and that they can have a substantial impact on the hydraulic properties of rock. As a…
The accurate description of fluid flow and transport in fractured porous media is of paramount importance to capture the macroscopic behaviour of an oil reservoir, a geothermal system, or a CO2 sequestration site, to name few applications.…
Hydro-mechanical processes in rough fractures are highly non-linear and govern productivity and associated risks in a wide range of reservoir engineering problems. To enable high-resolution simulations of hydro-mechanical processes in…
In resent years, the software ecosystem for numerical simulation still remains fragmented, with different algorithms and discretization methods often implemented in isolation, each with distinct data structures and programming conventions.…

We present a multi-resolution approach for constructing model-based simulations of hydraulic fracturing, wherein flow through porous media is coupled with fluid-driven fracture. The approach consists of a hybrid scheme that couples a…
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 new discretization approach is presented for the simulation of flow in complex poro-fractured media described by means of the Discrete Fracture and Matrix Model. The method is based on the numerical optimization of a properly defined…
Fluid flow in rough fractures and the coupling with the mechanical behaviour of the fractures pose great difficulties for numerical modeling approaches, due to complex fracture surface topographies, the non-linearity of hydromechanical…
