Adaptive Consistency for Mimetic Finite Differences
Yoo Jin Cha, Omar Duran, Nicola Castelletto +2
The mimetic finite difference (MFD) method provides a robust discretization for flow simulation on general polyhedral meshes, but its computational cost can become significant due…
A robust framework for frictional fault contact in geological formations using a stabilized augmented Lagrangian approach
Matteo Frigo, Nicola Castelletto, Matteo Cusini +2
Numerical simulations are essential for evaluating the performance and safety of geological engineered systems such as geologic carbon storage sites, enhanced geothermal fields, an…
Sensitivity of Trapping Efficiency and Relative Permeability to Experimental Methodology in Laboratory Core Flooding
Catherine Spurin, Catherine Callas, Takeshi Kurotori +2
Understanding the migration and trapping of CO in the subsurface is vital to geologic carbon storage projects. Traditional characterization methods employ steady-state co-injec…
Python workflow for segmenting multiphase flow in porous rocks
Catherine Spurin, Sharon Ellman, Dane Sherburn +2
X-ray micro-computed tomography (X-ray micro-CT) is widely employed to investigate flow phenomena in porous media, providing a powerful alternative to core-scale experiments for es…
