Owing to the hierarchical pore structures of cement paste, varying gas diffusion
mechanisms, ie surface, Knudsen and molecular diffusion, coexist. However, their combined …

Previous attempts to characterize shale gas transport in nanopores are not fully successful
due to the fact that the presence of water within shale reservoirs is generally overlooked. In …

The development of shale gas necessitates accurate modeling and characterization of these
complicated formations, at both small and large scales. At the small scale, the studies based …

In recent years, since the fast mass transport emerges from some low-dimensional
nanostructures (eg, graphene and CNTs), the applicability of the continuous model (eg …

Gas flow behaviors in shale are significantly complicated because of the inherent complexity
and heterogeneity of shale formations. Revealing the gas transport characteristic is critical …

In the past decades, shale gas has been recognized as the promising unconventional
resource for global energy storage, and a clear understanding of the gas-transport …
