in this paper, a very efficient method, called single matrix block analyzer (smba), has been developed to determine relative permeability and capillary pressure curves from spontaneous imbibition (si) data. smba mimics realistically the si tests by appropriate boundary conditions modeling. in the proposed method, a cuboid with an identical core plug height is considered. the equal dimensions of...

A typical Iranian carbonate matrix block surrounded by an open fracture was modeled in order to understand the fracture-matrix interaction and realize how to model the interaction best. The modeling was carried out by using a fine-scaled Eclipse model in the single porosity mode (the fractures were explicitly modeled). The model was extended to a stack of 6 matrix blocks to understand block-to-...

fifty years ago warren and root have introduced the shape factor. this fundamental parameter for modeling of naturally fractured reservoirs has been discussed stormily ever since. different definitions for shape factor have been suggested which all of them are heuristically based. recently, heinemann and mittermeir mathematically derived - based on the dual-continuum theorem assuming pseudo-ste...

the matrix functions appear in several applications in engineering and sciences. the computation of these functions almost involved complicated theory. thus, improving the concept theoretically seems unavoidable to obtain some new relations and algorithms for evaluating these functions. the aim of this paper is proposing some new reciprocal for the function of block anti diagonal matrices. more...

Pattern-based representation (PBR) is a novel sparse matrix representation that reduces the index overhead for many matrices without zero-filling and without requiring the identification of dense matrix blocks. The PBR analyzer identifies recurring block nonzero patterns, represents the submatrix consisting of all blocks of this pattern in block coordinate format, and generates custom matrix-ve...
