Mechanisms of dispersion in a porous medium (2018)
Journal Article
Dentz, M., Icardi, M., & Hidalgo, J. J. (2018). Mechanisms of dispersion in a porous medium. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 841, https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2018.120

This paper studies the mechanisms of dispersion in the laminar flow through the pore space of a three-dimensional porous medium. We focus on preasymptotic transport prior to the asymptotic hydrodynamic dispersion regime, in which solute motion may be... Read More about Mechanisms of dispersion in a porous medium.

Effect of wettability on two-phase quasi-static displacement: validation of two pore scale modeling approaches (2018)
Journal Article
Verma, R., Icardi, M., & Prodanovic, M. (2018). Effect of wettability on two-phase quasi-static displacement: validation of two pore scale modeling approaches. Journal of Contaminant Hydrology, 212, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jconhyd.2018.01.002

Abstract Understanding of pore-scale physics for multiphase flow in porous media is essential for accurate description of various flow phenomena. In particular, capillarity and wettability strongly influence capillary pressure-saturation and relative...
