Both field practices and laboratory experiments in mature, high water-cut oilfields have confirmed that long-term water flooding dynamically alters rock wettability and micro-pore structure, causing ...

Abstract: The magnetic charge model is a powerful tool for calculating the interaction forces between permanent magnets. This model enables the analytical or semi-analytical derivation of mathematical ...

Although mnemonic devices far predate the written word, both Cicero and Quintilian name Simonides of Ceos (c. 556-468 BCE) as the first teacher of an art of memory. Simonides is perhaps best known for ...

ABSTRACT: Bound water saturation is a key parameter in reservoir evaluation and plays a significant guiding role in the formulation of oilfield development strategies. This study focuses on the G ...

Low-permeability reservoirs often exhibit poor physical properties, scattered distribution of residual oil, and difficulties in water injection. Conventional fracture stimulation and flooding ...

Austin Sarat does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their ...

Relative permeability plays an important role in the upscaling of multiphase flow in porous media from the pore scale to the Darcy scale. The entire concept of relative permeability is contingent on ...

For decades, scientists across the globe have investigated methods to accurately measure drug permeability across the blood-brain barrier, a compact layer of cells that protect the brain from ...
