New method for measuring compressibility and poroelasticity coefficients in porous and permeable rocks

Lucas Xan Pimienta

Over the last decades, a large understanding has been gained on the elastic properties of rocks. Rocks are, however, porous materials, which properties depend on both response of the bulk material and of the pores. Because in that case both the applied ext ...

A discontinuous Galerkin reduced basis numerical homogenization method for fluid flow in porous media

Assyr Abdulle, Ondrej Budác

We present a new conservative multiscale method for Stokes flow in heterogeneous porous media. The method couples a discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (DG-FEM) at the macroscopic scale for the solution of an effective Darcy equation with a Stokes ...

An experimental study of the influence of pore water on dynamic rupture processes

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, François Xavier Thibault Passelègue, Mateo Alejandro Acosta

The objective is to examine the influence of pore water on dynamic rupture processes in the context of deep geothermal reservoirs. We conducted stick slip experiments on thermally-treated, saw-cut westerly granite samples under triaxial . The samples were ...

Shear strength of a compacted scaly clay in variable saturation conditions

Alessio Ferrari

Scaly clays are stiff and highly fissured clays often used as construction materials. This paper presents the results of triaxial compression tests carried out on saturated and unsaturated samples of a compacted scaly clay. Complementary investigation on t ...
