Relationship between fracture dip angle, aperture and fluid flow in the fractured rock masses
Most of the Earth's crust contains fluids, and fractures are common throughout the upper part. They exist at a wide range of scales from micro-fractures within grains to major faults and shear zones that traverse the crust. In this paper, the stress-dependent permeability in fractured rock masses have been investigated considering the effects of nonlinear normal deformation and shear dilation o...
متن کاملFracture-flow-enhanced Solute Diffusion into Fractured Rock
We propose a new conceptual model of fractureflow-enhanced matrix diffusion, which correlates with fracture-flow velocity, i.e., matrix diffusion enhancement induced by rapid fluid flow within fractures. According to the boundary-layer or film theory, fracture flow enhanced matrix diffusion may dominate mass-transfer processes at fracture-matrix interfaces, because rapid flow along fractures re...
متن کاملNon-Darcian Mixed Convection Flow in Vertical Composite Channels with Hybrid Boundary Conditions
In this article, the effects of viscous dissipation and inertial force on the velocity and temperature distributions of the mixed convection laminar flow in a vertical channel partly filled with a saturated porous medium have been studied. In this regard, the Brinkman–Forchheimer extended Darcy model was adopted for the fluid flow in the porous region. In addition, three different viscous dissi...
متن کاملGranulometric Determination of Sedimentary Rock Particle Roundness
A number of subjective and objective methods have been proposed, and are in use, to determine the roundness of sedimentary rock particles. Roundness, which is one of three properties describing the shape of a particle, is a measure of the extent to which the corners and edges of a particle have been worn away. The objective roundness measures are mainly based on the Fourier transform. In this p...
متن کاملSeismic Wave Propagation in Fractured Carbonate Rock
Laboratory experiments were performed on cubic samples of Austin Chalk to investigate the effect of fabric-induced anisotropy on the interpretation of fracture specific stiffness. The experimental results found that the fabric-induced layering complicates the interpretation of fracture specific stiffness. Seismic measurements from a sample with small layers (i.e., spacing and thickness) show th...
