The Importance of Laminae for China Lacustrine Shale Oil Enrichment: A Review

Shang-Qi Xu, +1 more
- 07 Feb 2023 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , the identification and description classification of shale laminae are first reviewed, and a comparative analysis shows that shale systems with well-developed lamination facilitate the development of bedding fractures, thus improving the shale storage space.

On the role of proppants and geomechanics on flowback behavior in complex fracture networks

TL;DR: In this article , an integrated numerical model is proposed to simulate fracture propagation, well shut-in and finally flow back from fracture network, where proppant stress is integrated to consider the presence of proppants and non-linear fracture permeability evolution is also considered to represent the transition from fracture flow to Darcy's flow.

The lift on a small sphere in a slow shear flow

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a sphere moving through a very viscous liquid with velocity V relative to a uniform simple shear, the translation velocity being parallel to the streamlines and measured relative to streamline through the centre, experiences a lift force 81·2μVa2k½/v½ + smaller terms perpendicular to the flow direction, which acts to deflect the particle towards the streamline moving in the direction opposite to V.

The Penetration of a Fluid into a Porous Medium or Hele-Shaw Cell Containing a More Viscous Liquid

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a flow is possible in which equally spaced fingers advance steadily at very slow speeds, such that behind the tips of the advancing fingers the widths of the two columns of fluid are equal.
