Crack healing is an effective way to recover the mechanical properties and improve the
durability of concrete. This can be achieved either by autogenous healing or adding healing …

This study investigates the nonlinear behavior of flow passing through 28 crack
topographies in concrete at various pressure gradients using water permeability test …

Particle-fluid two-phase flows in rock fractures and fracture networks play a pivotal role in
determining the efficiency and effectiveness of hydraulic fracturing operations, a vital …

The description accuracy of the rock-joint morphology is closely related to the sampling
interval and the sampling window size. In this study, a diorite joint was taken as the research …

Fractal theory offers a powerful tool for the precise description and quantification of the
complex pore structures in reservoir rocks, crucial for understanding the storage and …

Understanding the nonlinear flow of non-Newtonian fluids in rock fractures is critical for
underground engineering (eg, rock grouting). However, how to evaluate the effect of shear …

The interaction between fluid flow within fracture and fracture geometry has an essential
influence on fracture seepage characteristics, but is often neglected in conventional …

There are multiple flow paths with different flow directions in fracture intersections. A general
flow model synthetically describing the nonlinear flow behavior of multiple flow paths in …

Nonlinear catastrophes caused by geological fluids are a fundamental issue in rock
mechanics and the geoengineering hazard field. For the consideration of hydrodynamic …

Geological carbon sequestration in jointed reservoirs will require the use of fracture network
for the flow of CO2 plumes. However, acidic solution formed at the interface between brine …
