Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mechanics of Fluid Saturated Rocks presents a current and comprehensive report on this emerging field that bridges the areas of geology and mechanics. It is of direct interest to a wide spectrum of earth scientists and engineers who are concerned with upper-crust mechanics and fluid movements, the most important fluids being oil and water. This authoritative book is the result of a collaborative effort between scientists in academic institutions and industry. It examines important issues such as subsidence, geological fault formation, earthquake faulting, hydraulic fracturing, transport of fluids, and natural and direct applications. Mechanics of Fluid Saturated Rocks provides a unique interdisciplinary viewpoint, as well as case studies, conclusions, and recommendations for further research. Covers the physical, chemical, and mechanical analysis of porous saturated rock deformation on both large and small scales Discusses the latest developments of importance to engineers and geologists Examines natural and direct applications Includes extensive bibliographies for each chapter

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porous Rock Failure Mechanics: Hydraulic Fracturing, Drilling and Structural Engineering focuses on the fracture mechanics of porous rocks and modern simulation techniques for progressive quasi-static and dynamic fractures. The topics covered in this volume include a wide range of academic and industrial applications, including petroleum, mining, and civil engineering. Chapters focus on advanced topics in the field of rock’s fracture mechanics and address theoretical concepts, experimental characterization, numerical simulation techniques, and their applications as appropriate. Each chapter reflects the current state-of-the-art in terms of the modern use of fracture simulation in industrial and academic sectors. Some of the major contributions in this volume include, but are not limited to: anisotropic elasto-plastic deformation mechanisms in fluid saturated porous rocks, dynamics of fluids transport in fractured rocks and simulation techniques, fracture mechanics and simulation techniques in porous rocks, fluid-structure interaction in hydraulic driven fractures, advanced numerical techniques for simulation of progressive fracture, including multiscale modeling, and micromechanical approaches for porous rocks, and quasi-static versus dynamic fractures in porous rocks. This book will serve as an important resource for petroleum, geomechanics, drilling and structural engineers, R&D managers in industry and academia. Includes a strong editorial team and quality experts as chapter authors Presents topics identified for individual chapters are current, relevant, and interesting Focuses on advanced topics, such as fluid coupled fractures, rock’s continuum damage mechanics, and multiscale modeling Provides a ‘one-stop’ advanced-level reference for a graduate course focusing on rock’s mechanics

This book was released on 1975 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation of the mechanical influence of interstitial fluids on the deformation process of saturated rocks has been conducted to determine the domain of validity of previously published theories. Equilibrium equations for fluid saturated materials in which the fluid is at rest or flows according to DARCY's law were derived. For this purpose, a new characterization of porosity has been proposed for analyzing porosity variation within a rock mass. This derivation indicates that the bulk material (solid plus fluid) can be represented by an equivalent homogeneous continuum for which the mass density and the stress tensor at any point depend upon average stresses and average densities of both the solid matrix and the saturating fluid as well as upon the surface and the volume porosity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large fraction of the free world's oil reserves is obtainable only by the application of thermal enhanced recovery methods. This book provides an introductory overview of the important methods for oil recovery by application of heat. It describes the more important field tests of these methods and the operational problems encountered. The author offers an integrated approach to making preliminary, comparative forecasts for the principal methods of thermal oil recovery, and describes a novel method for insulating steam injection wells that is not widely used. Simplified calculation methods are presented by which preliminary estimates of process behavior can be made, and results of more sophisticated numerical simulations are presented for steam injection applications. There is thorough discussion of cyclic steam stimulation, steam flooding, and in situ combustion. Includes numerous case histories.
