2d 3d Boundary Element Programming In Petroleum Engineering And Geomechanics

2D/3D Boundary Element Programming in Petroleum Engineering and Geomechanics

2D/3D Boundary Element Programming in Petroleum Engineering and Geomechanics, Volume 72, is designed to make it easy for researchers, engineers and students to begin writing boundary element programs. This reference covers the fundamentals, theoretical developments, programming and applications. Both fluid flow through porous media and structural problems are used for coding exercises. Included computer programs may be used as starting codes; after modifications, they can be applied to real world problems. The book covers topics around mesh generation, 3D boundary element coding, and interface coding for controlling mesh generation, and plotting results. - Includes interactive 2D and 3D coding exercises that readers can modify based on need - Features research on the most recent developments in indirect and dual boundary element methods - Contains case studies showing examples and applications of the theories presented in the book

Finite Element Programming in Non-linear Geomechanics and Transient Flow

Finite Element Programming in Non-linear Geomechanics and Transient Flow delivers a textbook reference for both students and practitioners alike, with provided codes to understand and modify. Starting with the fundamentals, the reference covers the basics of finite element methods, including coupling geomechanics and transient fluid flow. The next phase moves from theory into practical application from programs Flow3D and Geo3D, utilizing source codes to solve real field challenges. Stability of perforations during oil and gas production, sand production problems, rock failure, casing collapse, and reservoir compaction problems are just some examples. Next, the reference elevates to hands-on experience, sharing source codes with additional problems engineers can work on independently. This gives students and engineers a starting point to modify their own code in a fraction of the time. - Helps users understand finite element programs such as Flow3D and Geo3D to solve geomechanics problems, including casing stability, reservoir compaction challenges, and sand production - Bridges the gap between theory, applications and source codes to help readers develop or modify their own computer programs with provided source codes - Includes cases studies and practice examples that illustrate real-world applications
