Numerical Analysis of Apparatus-Induced Dispersion for Density-Dependent Solute Transport in Porous Media
David Andrew Barry, Hong Zhang
The effects of apparatus-induced dispersion on nonuniform, density-dependent flow in a cylindrical soil column were investigated using a finite-element model. To validate the model, the results with an analytical solution and laboratory column test data we ...
2023Columnlike free-interface flows: symmetry breaking and linear instability
This thesis is dedicated to the analysis of a subclass of interfacial flows, columnlike free-interface flows, from two view angles: (i) the symmetry breaking under geometry-induced or external forces, (ii) their stability against infinitesimal disturbances ...
EPFL2023Swelling and shrinkage of partially saturated gas shales: from laboratory tests to an effective stress framework
Gas shale swelling during hydraulic stimulation is one of the major challenges in unconventional gas development. It is hypothesized that the large volumetric strain upon water imbibition is a consequence of dramatic changes in capillary pressure and disjo ...
EPFL2022Liquid metal infiltration of silicon based alloys into porous carbonaceous materials. Part II: Experimental verification of modelling approaches by infiltration of Si-Zr alloy into idealized microchannels
Ludger Weber, Caroline Hain, Giovanni Bianchi, Alberto Ortona, Manoj Kondibhau Naikade
In this work, the mechanisms leading to the pore closure in reactive melt infiltration (RMI) of carbon by pure silicon and a near eutectic Si-8 at-pct Zr alloy at 1500 and 1700 degrees C under vacuum were studied. Various geometrical configurations of micr ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2022Relaxation of capillary-gravity waves due to contact line nonlinearity: A projection method
François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone, Francesco Viola
We present a physics-inspired mathematical model based on successive linear eigenmode projections to solve the relaxation of small-amplitude and two-dimensional viscous capillary-gravity waves with a phenomenological nonlinear contact line model. We show t ...
AIP Publishing2021A Wearable Autonomous Colorimetric Sweat Induction System for Sweat Analysis
Silvia Demuru, Brince Paul Kunnel
The wearable biochemical sweat sensor's capability to provide insight into molecular information of health dynamics ignites sweat analysis as a promising noninvasive diagnosis scheme for precision medicine. Here, we demonstrate, for the first time, a color ...
IEEE2021Experimental assessment of the hydro-mechanical behaviour of a shale caprock during CO2 injection
Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Eleni Stavropoulou, Alberto Minardi, Taeheon Kim
The presented experimental study focuses on the hydro-mechanical characterisation of a shale caprock (Opalinus Clay) in contact with carbon dioxide. The objective of this paper, consists in the evaluation of the material's sealing capacity in terms of entr ...
