Sentence examples for permeable rock from inspiring English sources

In this study the permeability of 2D fractured and permeable rock matrix is calculated using a distinct element method when the rock matrix is modeled by Voronoi tessellations.

Fault zone architecture studies define fault core materials typically acting as low permeability barriers to flow, flanked by the damage zone of fractured permeable rock (Fig. 26b) (Mitchell and Faulkner 2009; Caine et al. 1996; Caine and Forster 1999; Aydin and Berryman 2015; Choi et al. 2016).

River water losses result from seepage and percolation into shallow or deep aquifers (permeable rock layers that readily transmit water) and particularly from evaporation.

Most geothermal plants are located where water has seeped down into the Earth's crust, been heated and forced back up through permeable rock.

Considerable amounts of groundwater are found within permeable rock strata, and bodies of water are found within caves and other subterranean rock formations, generally of limestone.

It is dug or drilled wherever a gently dipping, permeable rock layer (such as sandstone) receives water along its outcrop at a level higher than the level of the surface of the ground at the well site.

The model is applied to the simulation of hydraulic fracturing in permeable rocks to examine the effects of heterogeneities, permeability and borehole pressurization rate on the initiation of fracturing.

Using high polymer concentration in small slug, the oil recovery improvements in high permeable rocks are greater than in low-permeable rocks.

Quantification of multiphase flow in fractured permeable rocks is vital for hydrocarbon recovery, gas storage, and water resource management.

Highly permeable rocks are expected to be highly affected by axial loading compared to lower permeability ones (Ayan et al. 1994).

The fluid can find paths through the highly permeable rocks, which depend on the fluid-triggered deformation (acting as a complex feedback mechanism (McCaig et al., 1988)).
