Impact of gas/liquid phase change of CO during injection for sequestration
Mina Karimi, Elizabeth Cochran, Mehrdad Massoudi +3
CO sequestration in deep saline formations is an effective and important process to control the rapid rise in CO emissions. The process of injecting CO requires reliabl…
Deformation Decomposition versus Energy Decomposition for Chemo- and Poro- Mechanics
Janel Chua, Mina Karimi, Patrick Kozlowski +5
We briefly compare the structure of two classes of popular models used to describe poro- and chemo- mechanics wherein a fluid phase is transported within a solid phase. The multipl…
High-dimensional Nonlinear Bayesian Inference of Poroelastic Fields from Pressure Data
Mina Karimi, Mehrdad Massoudi, Kaushik Dayal +1
We investigate solution methods for large-scale inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs) via Bayesian inference. The Bayesian framework provides a statist…
Energetic Formulation of Large-Deformation Poroelasticity
Mina Karimi, Mehrdad Massoudi, Noel Walkington +2
The modeling of coupled fluid transport and deformation in a porous medium is essential to predict the various geomechanical process such as CO2 sequestration, hydraulic fracturing…
A continuum model for the unfolding of von Willebrand Factor
Mansur Zhussupbekov, Rodrigo Mendez Rojano, Wei-Tao Wu +2
von Willebrand Factor is a mechano-sensitive protein circulating in blood that mediates platelet adhesion to subendothelial collagen and platelet aggregation at high shear rates. I…
Influence of shear rate and surface chemistry on thrombus formation in micro-crevice
Mansur Zhussupbekov, Wei-Tao Wu, Megan A. Jamiolkowski +2
Thromboembolic complications remain a central issue in management of patients on mechanical circulatory support. Despite the best practices employed in design and manufacturing of…
Finite Element Simulations of an Elasto-Viscoplastic Model for Clay
M. N. Islam, C. T. Gnanendran, M. Massoudi
In this paper, we develop an elasto-viscoplastic (EVP) model for clay using the non-associated flow rule. This is accomplished by using a modified form of the Perzyna's overstresse…
A non-linear fluid suspension model for blood flow
Wei-Tao Wu, Nadine Aubry, James F. Antaki +1
Motivated by the complex rheological behaviors observed in small/micro scale blood vessels, such as the Fahraeus effect, plasma-skimming, shear-thinning, etc., we develop a non-lin…
Transport of platelets induced by red blood cells based on mixture theory
Wei-Tao Wu, Nadine Aubry, James F. Antaki +1
Thrombosis is a common complication following the surgical implantation of blood contacting devices, and is strongly influenced by the phenomenon of near-wall enrichment of platele…
Normal stress effects in the gravity driven flow of granular materials
Wei-Tao Wu, Nadine Aubry, James F. Antaki +1
In this paper, we study the fully developed gravity-driven flow of granular materials between two inclined planes. We assume that the granular materials can be represented by a mod…
Multi-Constituent Simulation of Thrombus Deposition
Wei-Tao Wu, Megan A. Jamiolkowski, William R. Wagner +3
In this paper, we present a spatio-temporal mathematical model for simulating the formation and growth of a thrombus. Blood is treated as a multi-constituent mixture comprised of a…
