Understanding the CO2 adsorption mechanism in clay nanopores is crucial for enhancing carbon capture and storage shale reservoirs. Nonetheless, impact of surface charge on heterogeneity its subsequent effects capacity within are not fully understood. By employing molecular dynamics simulations grand canonical Monte Carlo techniques, we examine charge, pressure, nanopore water capacity, density distribution, free energy profile montmorillonite (Mt) nanopore. Utilizing entropy as an innovative...

Hydraulic conductivity is a critical parameter for studying the behavior of clay-water systems. However, accurately estimating saturated hydraulic k in clayey soil by using Kozeny-Carman (KC) equation challenging due to neglect its active surface properties and nanoscale pores. Clay surfaces can have diverse characteristics resulting from various physicochemical processes such as isomorphous substitution are typically characterized Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). These significantly impact...

The wettability mechanism of soil–water interfaces is significant importance in geotechnical engineering. However, the effect different contact angles on unsaturated sand soil behavior has been less understood. In this study, wetting nano water droplets various silica substrates investigated using molecular dynamics. Seventeen groups simulation systems with interaction potential energies (ε Si =0.008, 0.04, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1, 2 kcal/mol) and temperatures (T=273, 298, 323, 353 K) are...

Abstract Kamlet parameter ф has been used to predict many explosive performances within applicable errors. There are three computation methods of for an mixture in references: Kamlet's original definition (as фI), by using weighted-average N, M and Q values pure components фII) adding the weighted фIII). In this paper, analysis shows that can detonation velocity pressure accuracies over a broader range chemical types CHNO mixtures. Note фIII gives best prediction results simplest computation.
