Abstract: Capillary imbibition in variably saturated porous media is important in defining displacement processes and transport in the vadose zone and in low-permeability barriers and reservoirs. Nonintrusive imaging in real time offers the potential to examine… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.petrol.2018.12.080
Abstract: Abstract Understanding clay hydration and swelling is crucial for designing drilling and fracturing fluids. Previous studies on water imbibition in gas shales indicate that clay hydration and swelling are partly responsible for strong water uptake… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2019gl082419
Abstract: Despite the efforts reported in the literature to explain contrasting experimental observations, the evolution of seismic attributes (velocity and attenuation) of rocks across the saturation range remains ill understood. In a comparative study, we monitored… read more here.
