In hydrocarbon drilling, mud filtrate penetrates permeable formations and alters the pore fluid characteristics in the immediate vicinity of the borehole. Typically, the prevailing in situ pore fluids are displaced by the invading mud filtrate, which leads to gradually changing d ...

The hydraulic and mechanical characterization of fractures is crucial for a wide range of pertinent applications, such as geothermal energy production, hydrocarbon exploration, <span classCombining double low line"inline-formula">CO2</span> sequestration, and nucl ...

In oil drilling, mud filtrate penetrates into porous formations and alters the compositions and properties of the pore fluids. This disturbs the logging signals and brings errors to reservoir evaluation. Drilling and logging engineers therefore deem mud invasion as undesired and ...
The hydraulic characterization of fractures is crucial for geothermal energy production, hydrocarbon exploration, CO2-sequestration, and nuclear waste disposal. We propose to estimate the effective hydraulic aperture and the mechanical compliance of isolated fractures intersectin ...
The hydrological state of a hillslope prior to a sprinkling-induced shallow landslide was monitored using electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) along a 47 m long transect, supplemented by local time-domain reflectometry (TDR) and tensiometer measurements. The spatial and tempor ...
