It is commonly assumed that coffee particles swell during filtration, but it has not been
clarified how different degrees of swelling affect the extraction. In this article, we propose a …

We present a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the dynamics of water
imbibition through paper with swelling. The Washburn equation has been widely used to …

The pressure pulse technique has been suggested as a potential method to enhance oil
recovery from tight oil reservoirs. To investigate the variations in the pore structure of tight …

We present gravimetrical and optical imaging experiments on the capillarity-driven
imbibition of silicone oils in monolithic silica glasses traversed by 3D networks of pores …

Hypothesis Control of capillary flow through porous media has broad practical implications.
However, achieving accurate and reliable control of such processes by tuning the pore size …

An improved high-speed NMR profiling method is introduced that enables us to measure
capillary action in thin, nontransparent porous media. Liquid profiles can be measured as …

A filter membrane may be frequently used during its lifetime, with filtration and drying
processes occurring in the porous medium for several cycles. During these cycles, the …

We describe imbibition in real and artificial plant seeds, using a combination of experiments
and theory. In both systems, our experiments demonstrate that liquid permeates the …

The flow of liquids through paper is challenging to model due to the complexity and
disordered layout of the fibre matrix. The expanding use and capability of microfluidic paper …
