Permeability anisotropy induced by the shear displacement of rough fracture walls
The permeability anisotropy that results from a shear displacement ~u between the complementary self-affine walls of a rough fracture is investigated. Experiments in which a dyed fluid displaces a transparent one as it is radially injected into a transparent fracture exhibit a clear anisotropy in the presence of shear displacements, and allow us to estimate the ratio of the permeabilities for f...
متن کاملFlow channeling in a single fracture induced by shear displacement
The effect on the transport properties of fractures of a relative shear displacement ~u of rough walls with complementary self-affine surfaces has been studied experimentally and numerically. The shear displacement ~u induces an anisotropy of the aperture field with a correlation length scaling as u and significantly larger in the direction perpendicular to ~u. This reflects the appearance of l...
متن کاملPressure anisotropy and small spatial scales induced by velocity shear.
By including the full pressure tensor dynamics in a fluid plasma model, we show that a sheared velocity field can provide an effective mechanism that makes the initial isotropic pressure nongyrotropic. This is distinct from the usual gyrotropic anisotropy related to the fluid compressibility and usually accounted for in double-adiabatic models. We determine the time evolution of the pressure ag...
متن کاملNematic polymer mechanics : flow - induced anisotropy
In this paper, we model and compute flow-induced mechanical properties of nematic polymer nanocomposites, consisting of transversely isotropic rigid spheroids in an isotropic matrix. Our goal is to fill a gap in the theoretical literature between random and perfectly aligned spheroidal composites (Odegard et al. in Compos. Sci. Technol. 63, 1671–1687, 2003; Gusev et al. in Adv. Eng. Mater. 4(12...
متن کاملA Fracture Mechanics Model for the Repair of Microcantilevers by Laser Induced Stress Waves
A fracture mechanics model was developed, and experimentally verified, to model stress wave repair of stiction-failed microcantilevers. This model allows us to predict accurately the number of laser pulses, at a specific fluence and wavelength, required to fully repair stiction-failed microcantilevers. The proposed fracture mechanics model includes the strain energy stored in a stiction-failed ...
