We develop a new coupled hydro-mechanical-chemical (HMC) model to investigate the stress-controlled evolution of dissolution cavities along a hectometer-scale heterogeneous fracture. The fracture is conceptualized to consist of numerous patches associated with spatially-variable, ...
Fracture distribution plays a significant role in the behavior of subsurface environments, affecting such activities as geothermal production, exploitation and management of groundwater resources, and long-term storage of nuclear waste and carbon dioxide. A key challenge in these ...
A two-dimensional particle-based heat transfer model is used to train a deep neural network. The latter provides a highly efficient surrogate that can be used in standard inversion methods, such as grid search algorithms. The resulting inversion strategy is utilized to infer stat ...
