The crack tip region in hydraulic fracturing
Jean Desroches,Emmanuel Detournay,B. Lenoach,Panos Papanastasiou,J. R. A. Pearson,Marc Thiercelin,Ailan Cheng +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present analytical tip region solutions for fracture width and pressure when a power law fluid drives a plane strain fracture in an impermeable linear elastic solid, where the tip region stress is dominated by a singularity which is particular to the hydraulic fracturing problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
On gas absorption into a turbulent liquid
G.E. Fortescue,J. R. A. Pearson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided a model for the process of re-aeration of polluted rivers and streams using a simple cellular model and compared with experimental results for absorption of CO2 into water in the flow behind a grip placed across the entrance to an open channel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Models for flow of non-Newtonian and complex fluids through porous media
TL;DR: In this article, a brief and simple account of continuum models for transport in porous media, and the role of length scales in passing from pore-scale phenomena to “Darcy” continuum scale representations using averaged variables.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Melting in single screw extruders
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the melting of granules in a single screw extruder is presented, which is consistent with observations of earlier workers and retains some of the ideas introduced by Tadmor in his model.
