(2021-04-29)Microstructure of a material determines the transport, chemical and mechanical properties. Geological materials and geomaterials are imaged using microscopy tools. The microscopy images are analyzed to better understand ...
-
(2017-09-01)Reliable evaluation of rock mechanical properties in organic-rich mudrocks is challenging due to their heterogeneity, anisotropy, and complex lithology. It is important to assimilate variable elastic properties and ...
-
(2013-12-04)Interpretation of electrical resistivity logs in organic-rich source rocks has been challenging for petrophysicists. Conventional resistivity-porosity-saturation models (e.g., Archie’s, Dual-Water, and Waxman-Smits equations) ...
-
(2019-04-10)Transport of small hydrocarbon molecules inside organic nanopores is important to our understanding of oil and gas production from source rocks such as shale. Unlike flow in conventional reservoirs, the fluid transport in ...
