Abstract Understanding the adsorption mechanisms of CO 2 and N in illite, one main components clay shale, is important to improve precision shale gas exploration development. We investigated K-illite with varying pore sizes at temperature 333, 363 393 K over a broad range pressures up 30 MPa using grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulation method. The system proved be reasonable suitable through discussion impact cation dynamics wall thickness. results excess amount, expressed per unit...
Abstract Seismic characterization of fractures is great importance in many disciplines, for which rock physics models provide the basis to link fracture properties seismic attributes. However, date, most neglect background anisotropy that may exist fractured formations. Hence, this work, we developed a theoretical model effective elastic with penny‐shaped cracks embedded transversely isotropic (TI) medium. We first derived analytical solutions case dry or fluid‐filled parallel plane TI...
Abstract Classical third‐order thermoelastic constants are generally derived from the theory of small‐amplitude acoustic waves in isotropic materials during heat treatments. Investigating higher‐order for higher temperatures is challenging owing to involvement number unknown parameters. These Taylor‐type classical thermoelasticity formulated based on Taylor series Helmholtz free energy density preheated crystals. However, these models limited even at low characterizing temperature‐dependent...
