Capillary fluctuations and energy dynamics for flow in porous media
James E. McClure, Steffen Berg, Ryan T. Armstrong
Capillary energy barriers have important consequences for immiscible fluid flow in porous media. We derive time-and-space averaging theory to account for non-equilibrium behavior a…
Thermodynamics of fluctuations based on time-and-space averages
James E. McClure, Steffen Berg, Ryan T. Armstrong
We develop non-equilibrium theory by using averages in time and space as a generalized way to upscale thermodynamics in non-ergodic systems. The approach offers a classical perspec…
Characterization of wetting using topological principles
Chenhao Sun, James E. McClure, Peyman Mostaghimi +5
Hypothesis Understanding wetting behavior is of great importance for natural systems and technological applications. The traditional concept of contact angle, a purely geometrical…
ML-LBM: Machine Learning Aided Flow Simulation in Porous Media
Ying Da Wang, Traiwit Chung, Ryan T. Armstrong +1
Simulation of fluid flow in porous media has many applications, from the micro-scale (cell membranes, filters, rocks) to macro-scale (groundwater, hydrocarbon reservoirs, and geoth…
Physical Accuracy of Deep Neural Networks for 2D and 3D Multi-Mineral Segmentation of Rock micro-CT Images
Ying Da Wang, Mehdi Shabaninejad, Ryan T. Armstrong +1
Segmentation of 3D micro-Computed Tomographic uCT) images of rock samples is essential for further Digital Rock Physics (DRP) analysis, however, conventional methods such as thresh…
