Helical flow can occur in porous media if the hydraulic conductivity tensor is anisotropic.We study the structure of steady-state flowfields in three-dimensional anisotropic porous media formed by two homogeneous layers, ...

A new discrete fracture model is introduced to simulate the steady-state fluid flow in discontinuous porous media. The formulation uses a multi-layered approach to capture the effect of both longitudinal and transverse ...

This paper analyses the free convection flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past an infinite vertical accelerated plate embedded in porous medium with constant heat flux in the presence of transverse magnetic field. ...

The presence of discontinuities such as cracks and faults in porous media can remarkably impact the fluid pressure distribution. This is due to considerable contrast between hydraulic properties of porous matrix and ...

This paper deals with the homogenization of a nonlinear problem mod-elllng chemica! reactive flows through periodically perforated domains. The chemical reactions take place on the walls of the porous médium. The effective ...
