<p>Injecting fluid into the formation is an effective solution for improving the permeability and production of a target reservoir. The evaluation of economy and safety of injection process is a challenging issue faced in reservoir engineering [1-2]. As known, the relative magnitude and direction of the principal stresses significantly influence the hydro-mechanical behavior of reservoir rock during fluid injection. However, due to the limitations of current testing techniques, it is still difficult to comprehensively conduct laboratory injection tests under various stress conditions, e.g. triaxial extension stress states [3]. To this end, a series of numerical simulations were carried out on reservoir rock to study the hydro-mechanical changes under different stress states during fluid injection. In this modelling, the saturated rock is first loaded to the target stress state under drainage conditions, and then the stress state is maintained and water is injected from the top end to simulate the reservoir injection process. Particular attention is paid to the difference in hydro-mechanical changes under triaxial compression and extension stresses. This includes the difference of the pore pressure propagation, mean effective stress, volumetric strain, and stress-induced permeability. The numerical results demonstrate that the differential stress will significantly affect the hydro-mechanical behavior of target rock, but the degree of influence is different under the two triaxial stress states. The hydro-mechanical changes caused by the triaxial compression stress states are generally greater than that of extension, but the difference decreases with increasing differential stress, indicating that the increase of the differential stress will weaken the impact of the stress state on the hydro-mechanical response. This study can deepen our understanding of the stress-induced hydro-mechanical coupling process in reservoir injection engineering.</p><p>Keywords: Reservoir injection; Subsurface flow; Hydro-mechanical coupling; Stress state; Triaxial experiment modelling</p><p>[1] Li, X., Lei, X. & Li, Q. 2016.

ABSTRACTA series of Nb-Al-V alloys containing 20–40 at. % V and 10–25 at. % Al have been investigated. The phase distributions in the alloys indicate that Al promotes the formation of the A15 phase whilst V stabilises a B2 phase. Room temperature compression testing revealed that the B2 is inherently ductile such that for the alloys with less than 40% by volume of the A15 phase, strains of over 50% were obtained easily. The 2% offset yield stresses of these alloys did not vary significantly with composition, being 1.2±0.1GPa in each case. TEM studies were used to show that the deformation in the B2 phase occurs predominantly by the glide of screw-type super-partial dislocations with b=l/2<111> on {110} and {112}. In some alloys this dislocation activity was preceded by the formation of pseudo-twins, via a martensitic shear transformation.

Abstract Lattice structures used for medical implants offer advantages related to weight reduction, osseointegration, and minimization of stress shielding. This paper intends to study and to compare the mechanical behavior of three different lattice structures: tetrahedral vertex centroid (TVC), hexagonal prism vertex centroid (HPVC), and cubic diamond (CD), that are designed to be incorporated in a shoulder hemiprosthesis. The unit cell configurations were generated using nTopology Element Pro software with a uniform strut thickness of 0.5 mm. Fifteen cuboid samples of 25mm × 25mm × 15 mm, five for each unit cell configuration, were additively manufactured using Direct Light Printing (DLP) technology with a layer height of 50μm and a XY resolution of 73μm. The mechanical behavior of the 3D printed lattice structures was examined by performing mechanical compression testing. E-silicone (methacrylated silicone) was used for the fabrication of samples, and its mechanical properties were obtained from experimental tensile testing of dog-bone samples. A methodology for size optimization of lattice unit cells is provided, and the optimization is achieved using nTopology Element Pro software. The generated results are analyzed, and the HPVC configuration is selected to be incorporated in the further design of prosthesis for bone cancer patients.
