Debris flows are typically a saturated mixture of poorly sorted particles and interstitial fluid, whose density and flow properties depend strongly on the presence of suspended fine sediment. Recent research suggests that grain size distribution (GSD) influences excess pore pressures (i.e., pressure in excess of predicted hydrostatic pressure), which in turn plays a governing role in debris flo...

The objective of the present work is to demonstrate the effect of pore structure on fluid transport and electrical properties of homogeneous or dual-porosity pore structures for drainage conditions. To this end, a pore network numerical simulator is used that calculates multiphase flow and electrical properties taking into account the pore structure specificities. The characteristics of the 3-D...

In this work, a simple and effective way to modify the support surface is developed and a nanostructure ceramic support to facilitate deposition of a defect-free overlying micro and meso (nano) porous membrane is obtained. To achieve high performance nanocomposite membranes, average pore size of outer surface of support was reduced by dip-coating in submicron and nano α-alumina slurries. In...

There is abnormal fluid pressure widely distributed in Yinggehai-Qiongdongnan Basin, with zones extending from different depths, and the formation causes of here are complicated. It one three HTHP offshore regions world at present. Hence, drilling this region very difficult. discovered practices recent years that, due to multiple mechanisms region, conventional prediction model based on under-c...

Abstract Chang-10 reservoir in Wuqi–Ansai oilfield of Ordos Basin is restricted by its strong microscopic heterogeneity, complicated pore structure and unclear oil–water movement rules. The technology nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) an excellent method to quantitatively evaluate the fluid different types, experiments such as cast thin slices, scanning electron microscope (SEM) high-pressure me...

PURPOSE It has been reported that fixation conditions significantly influence the apparent pore density in the inner-wall endothelium of Schlemm's canal. In the present study, the manner in which fixation conditions affect the two subtypes of inner-wall pores, intracellular pores and intercellular (or border) pores, was investigated. METHODS Outflow facility was measured in enucleated human e...

expansive soils can be found in many parts of the world particularly in arid and semi-arid regions. these soilspose a significant hazard to civil engineering structures due to its high swelling and shrinkage potential. this paperpresents the results of an experimental program developed to investigate the effect of cyclic drying and wetting on theswelling potential of expansive soils with variou...

the main role ofcore in earth dams is to reduce and control the seepage flow through the dam. in order to achieve this purpose, the core material is usually selected from pure or mixed clays.due to very small coefficient of permeability, the clay cores can prevent water leakageeasily. however, pore water pressures developed inside the core during construction, can not be dissipated quickly. as ...

Two new 2D COFs were synthesized from triformylcyclotrianisylene, which show not only thermal stability but also hydrolytic stability. CTV-COF-1 with smaller pore size stored a high hydrogen level of 1.3 wt% at low pressure, while CTV-COF-2 with larger pore size showed superior carbon dioxide uptake, up to 250 cm(3) g(-1) at 298 K and 50 bar.
