New unsaturated coupled models have been developed for fluid transport in deformable rock by using modified mixture theory rather than a fully mechanics-based approach. These models include the following: an unsaturated hydro-mechanical coupled model for both non-swelling and sw…

In the last few years, a rapid development in the method known as the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) has been achieved. It demonstrated its ability to simulate hydrodynamic systems, multiphase and multicomponent fluids. The main advantages of the LBM are the parallelism of the m…
