Nowadays, gas and nuclear waste storage, shale gas and EOR exploitation rise the need to understand and predict the fate of multiphase flows in the underground. Various formulations for multiphase flow arise from different linear combinations of governing equations and choice of ... En savoir plus
Transport of microorganisms through porous media governs many phenomena in bioremediation of environmental pollution problems and microbial enhanced oil recovery. The aim of this work is to investigate the effects of some transport parameters on breakthrough curves as well as on spatial ... En savoir plus
This study presents the simulation of transport phenomena in the Horstberg geothermal system in the North German Basin. The Horstberg geothermal system composed of a subsurface reservoir and a borehole. The borehole was completed in a multilayer sandstone reservoir and an induced ... En savoir plus
The Marine Controlled Source ElectroMagnetic (marine CSEM) is a geophysical method used by the oil industry to investigate resistive targets in the sediments under the ocean floor. In this work we simulate marine CSEM data including 1D, 2.5D and 3D modeling. The results obtained with ... En savoir plus
Radionuclide sorption is often simulated using a lumped approach where retention processes are represented by the distribution coefficient (Kd), which relates the radionuclide mass retained in the solid phase to its aqueous concentration. Classical Kd-based simulations rely on two strong ... En savoir plus
The influence of the energy (heat) stored in the earth as a major factor in environmental soil processes is recognized by the soil science community. The heat (energy) supplied by the earth is known to fluctuate with depth below ground surface and time of year, obviously as a function ... En savoir plus
Sediment transport in shallow water is of concern in many hydro-ecological problems. Erosion or sedimentation processes are not only relevant in perennial systems as rivers, lakes, reservoirs and coastal regions, but also in ephemeral phenomena like gullies, inundations and floods. ...

In boreholes nozzles have to be found advantageous to increase the infiltration rate of water into the subsurface ground. Studies and practice in the field shows that the infiltration of water into permeable aquifers can be improved, if the flow in the borehole is modified. Due to the ... En savoir plus
Many numerical coupling thermo-hydro-mechanical-chemical models for methane hydrate bearing sediments(MHBS) have been proposed to analyze the mechanical behavior of MHBS during methane gas production. However, most of them are based on finite differential method (FDM) or finite volume ... En savoir plus
A model is presented for heat rejection in the subsurface. Geometries of different dimension are coupled by linear and general extrusions. In that way it is possible to deal with multi-scale physical set-up. An example shows the high influence of groundwater flow. En savoir plus
