The mechanical properties of partially molten rock, such as their permeabilities and viscosities, are important properties in geological processes. We performed molecular dynamics simulations in terms of structures and diffusivities in forsterite-MgSiO3 liquid interfaces to obtain the nanoscale dynamic properties and structure of the interface. The characteristic structure of the forsterite-MgS...

Adopting sustainable strategies to manage water resources of karst reservoirs requires understand the carbonate rock reactivity that is responsible for formation these reservoirs, as well role mineralogy in conduit formation. To this end, three rocks (chalk, crinoidal limestone and dolomite) with different internal structure are submitted laboratory dissolution experiments by injecting an acid ...

wettability alteration is one of the most important methods for oil recovery from sandstone andcarbonate reservoirs. the effects of salinity, ph, temperature, and chemicals such as surfactants andfatty acids on the alteration of the wettability were described in previous studies. in recent years,attention has been directed to nanoparticles as a wettability alteration agent. the effect of somena...

Eliot Glacier is a small (1.6 km) glacier on Mount Hood, Oregon, USA, and its ablation zone is largely covered with rock debris. We examine the interrelated processes of ablation rates, ice thickness and surface velocities to understand the retreat rate of this glacier. Since measurements began in 1901, the glacier has retreated 680m, lost 19% of its area and thinned by about 50m at the lower g...

In some of the challenging digital rock applications trade-off between model resolution and representative elemental volume is not captured in a single satisfying minimum requirements for both aspects. wide range lithofacies found carbonate reservoir rocks, facies fall this category, where large pores, ooids or vugs, are connected by small scale porous structures that could have orders magnitud...
