This thesis explores the effect of fluid substitution, pore-pressure diffusion and stresses due to hydraulic fracturing on the elastic velocities and microcrack orientations in the surrounding rock. I develop a workflow incorporating three main components to model the velocity field around the...

Continuum Modelling and Analysis of a Class of One and Two Dimensional Elastic Metamaterials with Local Rotation
DownloadFall 2022
The group of materials classified as "metamaterials" have accrued great interest in the scientific community as of late for their potential to revolutionize several multidisciplinary applications. Metamaterials are defined as synthetic/man-made materials which have been engineered to possess a...

Abstract: In very loose sand, the ratio M-p of shear stress to mean normal stress at the peak point of the undrained effective stress path (UESP) is very close to the stress ratio M at the peak point of the capped yield surface. Stress ratios M-p can therefore be used in constructing yield...

Experimental investigation of the effect of elasticity on the sweep efficiency in viscoelastic polymer flooding operations
DownloadFall 2010
This study aims to investigate the effect of elastic properties of viscoelastic polymer solutions on the microscopic sweep efficiency in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) operations. The effect of elasticity was studied as isolated from the shear viscosity effect using polymer blends with identical...

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE SETTLING VELOCITY OF SPHERICAL PARTICLES IN VISCOELASTIC FLUIDS
DownloadFall 2017
Knowledge of settling behavior of particles in various types of fluids is indispensable to design and optimize numerous industrial operations such as cuttings transport in oil and gas well drilling, proppant transport in hydraulic fracturing operations, and so on. Most of the models developed so...

Many geological deposits contain nonlinear anisotropic features such as veins, channels, folds or local changes in orientation; numerical property modeling must account for these features to be reliable and predictive. This work incorporates locally varying anisotropy into inverse distance...
