Various numerical methods have been used in the literature to simulate single and
multiphase flow in fractured media. A promising approach is the use of the discrete-fracture …

Rock fractures are crucial conduits for fluid flow in fractured rock masses. Three-dimensional
(3D) discrete fracture network (DFN) modeling approach, which can explicitly characterize …

Abstract dfn W orks is a parallelized computational suite to generate three-dimensional
discrete fracture networks (DFN) and simulate flow and transport. Developed at Los Alamos …

While permeability scaling of fractured media has been so far studied independently at the
fracture‐and network‐scales, we propose a numerical analysis of the combined effect of …

We introduce the feature rejection algorithm for meshing (FRAM) to generate a high quality
conforming Delaunay triangulation of a three-dimensional discrete fracture network (DFN) …

A comprehensive framework for modeling flow in porous media containing thin, discrete
features, which could be high-permeability fractures or low-permeability deformation bands …

The discrete fracture network (DFN) model is a method to mimic discrete pathways for fluid
flow through a fractured low-permeable rock mass, and may be combined with particle …

In fractured rocks, fluid flows mostly within a complex arrangement of fractures. Both the
fracture network structure and its hydraulic properties are determined at first order by the …

Understanding the fluid flow and solute transport mechanisms in fractured rocks is essential
for many geoengineering applications. In this study, the fluid flow and solute transport in a …

Mechanistic modeling of water resources systems is a broad field with abundant challenges.
We consider classes of model formulations that are considered routine, the focus of current …
