    • A pore-scale model for permeable biofilm: Numerical simulations and laboratory experiments 

      Landa-Marban, David; Liu, Na; Pop, Iuliu Sorin; Kumar, Kundan; Pettersson, Per; Bødtker, Gunhild; Skauge, Tormod; Radu, Florin Adrian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)
      In this paper, we derive a pore-scale model for permeable biofilm formation in a two-dimensional pore. The pore is divided into two phases: water and biofilm. The biofilm is assumed to consist of four components: water, ...

    • An Upscaled Model for Permeable Biofilm in a Thin Channel and Tube 

      Marban, David Landa; Bødtker, Gunhild; Kumar, Kundan; Pop, Iuliu Sorin; Radu, Adrian Florin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      In this paper, we derive upscaled equations for modeling biofilm growth in porous media. The resulting macroscale mathematical models consider permeable multi-species biofilm including water flow, transport, detachment and ...

    • Dimensional reduction of a fractured medium for a polymer EOR model 

      Dugstad, Martin Sandanger; Kumar, Kundan; Pettersen, Øystein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Dimensional reduction strategy is an effective approach to derive reliable conceptual models to describe flow in fractured porous media. The fracture aperture is several orders of magnitude smaller than the characteristic ...

    • Field-scale impacts of long-term wettability alteration in geological CO2 storage 

      Kassa, Abay; Gasda, Sarah Eileen; Landa-Marbán, David; Sandve, Tor Harald; Kumar, Kundan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Constitutive functions that govern macroscale capillary pressure and relative permeability are central in constraining both storage efficiency and sealing properties of storage systems. Constitutive functions for porous ...

    • Impact of time-dependent wettability alteration on the dynamics of capillary pressure 

      Kassa, Abay; Gasda, Sarah; Kumar, Kundan; Radu, Florin Adrian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Wettability is a pore-scale property that has an important impact on capillarity, residual trapping, and hysteresis in porous media systems. In many applications, the wettability of the rock surface is assumed to be constant ...

    • Implicit linearization scheme for nonstandard two-phase flow in porous media 

      Kassa, Abay; Kumar, Kundan; Gasda, Sarah; Radu, Florin Adrian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      In this article, we consider a nonlocal (in time) two‐phase flow model. The nonlocality is introduced through the wettability alteration induced dynamic capillary pressure function. We present a monotone fixed‐point iterative ...

    • Modeling of relative permeabilities including dynamic wettability transition zones 

      Kassa, Abay; Gasda, Sarah E.; Kumar, Kundan; Radu, Florin Adrian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Wettability is a pore-scale property that impacts the relative movement and distribution of fluids in a porous medium. There are reservoir fluids that provoke the surface within pores to undergo a wettability change. This ...

    • Practical approaches to study microbially induced calcite precipitation at the field scale 

      Marban, David Landa; Tveit, Svenn; Kumar, Kundan; Gasda, Sarah (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is a new and sustainable technology which utilizes biochemical processes to create barriers by calcium carbonate cementation; therefore, this technology has a potential to ...
