Geological heterogeneity is often represented by assigning rock properties to grids of different block size. Some geological features are represented as discrete objects at the chosen grid block size and others are represented as continuous properties. There is a transition between the discrete...

Investigating Stress Concentrations near Boreholes in Anisotropic Formations and the Mechanical Behavior of Drilling-induced Tensile Fractures
DownloadFall 2015
With the increasing exploitation of unconventional reservoirs, the demands of implementing geomechanics to improve the exploration and development process have been greater than before. Knowledge of in-situ stresses and rock failure mechanisms is key for building a comprehensive geomechanical...

The LAB60 simulation is a coupled ocean sea-ice model (NEMO) that uses grid refinement to achieve high resolution (1/60 of a degree) within the Labrador Sea. This simulation starts in 2002 and will cover a period of over 10 years. This video shows the Irminger Water passive tracer's depth...

NUMERICAL AND SEMI-EMPIRICAL MODELING OF PARTICLES UNDERGOING PHASE CHANGE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF CONVECTION
DownloadFall 2016
This work is devoted to the development and validation of subgrid models describing heat and mass transfer between the bulk flow of gas/liquid and a moving particle undergoing phase change under the influence of free/mixed/forced convection. Such kind of submodels plays the role of ’scale...

Hydraulic fracturing is a technique to enhance hydrocarbon production by inducing fracture(s) into reservoir rock. A fracture is induced by injecting fluid into the reservoir at pressures greater than the formation breakdown pressure. The fracture(s) geometry, mode, initiation and propagation...

Numerical modelling of the Arctic and North Atlantic exchanges with NEMO: Focus on freshwater and dynamics
DownloadFall 2018
The Arctic is currently undergoing significant changes due to increasing anthropogenic greenhouse gases causing atmospheric warming. The impact of this warming is clearly visible in the Arctic: reduced sea-ice cover, enhanced land-ice melting, increased frequency of extreme weather, etc....

Reclamation for aspen revegetation in the Athabasca oil sands: Understanding soil water dynamics through unsaturated flow modelling
Download2012
Smerdon, B.D., Mendoza, C.A., Devito, K.J., Petrone, R.M., Carrera-Hernandez, J.J.
Reclamation of mined areas in the Athabasca oil sands region is required by law, with the ultimate goal of revegetating to species characteristic of predisturbance native plant communities. To develop adequate reclamation strategies, an analysis of soil water dynamics is of utmost importance, as...
