Supercritical CO2 injection and residence time in fluid-saturated rocks: Evidence for CO2 and mineral dissolution and effects on rock integrity

Lucas Xan Pimienta, Ke Liu

CO2 injection and storage in geological reservoirs is an attractive prospect for mitigating the anthropogenic production of greenhouse gases and global warming. The technology could lead to mineral precipitation and therefore stable storage over geological ...

INVESTIGATION OF TURBIDITY CURRENT VENTING FOR TWO DIFFERENT RESERVOIR BED SLOPES

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Sabine Chamoun

Reservoirs represent an important source of energy that should be preserved and sustained. However, the lifetime of reservoirs is being reduced due to natural processes such as sedimentation. To face this problem, different sediment mitigation techniques a ...

Reconstruction and visualization of large-scale volumetric models of neocortical circuits for physically-plausible in silico optical studies

Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Marwan Muhammad Ahmed Abdellah, Juan Bautista Hernando Vieites, Stefan Eilemann, Nicolas Antille

Background: We present a software workflow capable of building large scale, highly detailed and realistic volumetric models of neocortical circuits from the morphological skeletons of their digitally reconstructed neurons. The limitations of the existing a ...

Potential fracture propagation into the caprock induced by cold CO2 injection in normal faulting stress regimes

Lyesse Laloui, Victor Vilarrasa Riano

Thermal effects are an important component in the analysis of geologic carbon storage because the injected CO2 reaches the storage formation at a lower temperature than that of the reservoir rock. The main fear is related to the possibility that the shear ...

Hydrological modelling of the Zambezi River Basin taking into account floodplain behaviour by a modified reservoir approach

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Théodora Cohen Liechti, David Ferràs Segura

Floodplains are regions of great interest for environmental assessment as they constitute important ecological reserves and contribute efficiently to natural flood attenuation. However, the implementation of a model describing the basic hydrological behavi ...

Slip Fronts at Frictional Interfaces : A Numerical and Theoretical Study

David Simon Kammer

Even though friction affects everyday life in many ways, it is still one of the biggest mysteries of physics. Friction is a truly multi-scale phenomenon with a large variety of processes acting at various length and time scales. In recent years, much atten ...

Influence of dam operation on water resources management under different scenarios in the Zambezi River Basin considering environmental objectives and hydropower

Théodora Cohen Liechti

Worldwide, almost 50,000 dams over 15 m height have been built during the last six decades with an aggregated storage capacity of 6,000 km3. The fact that large dams, by increasing irrigation and hydroelectricity production, can sustain development and red ...
