arXiv:2602. 22188v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Modelling rock-fluid interaction requires solving a set of partial differential equations (PDEs) to predict the flow behaviour and the reactions of the fluid with the rock on the interfaces.

The paper introduces a physics-informed neural network (PINN) framework for modeling fluid flow in dual‑network porous media, specifically addressing double porosity/permeability (DPP) systems. The framework embeds governing equations and boundary conditions into the loss function with adaptive weighting, employs dynamic collocation point selection, and uses shared trunk architectures to efficiently capture coupled pore‑network behavior. It is mesh‑free, accurately handles discontinuities across layered domains, and supports robust inverse analysis for parameter identification, with a systematic convergence study validating its stability and accuracy.

arXiv:2510. 19465v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Obtaining truly representative pore-scale images that match bulk formation properties remains a fundamental challenge in subsurface characterization, as natural spatial heterogeneity causes extracted sub-images to deviate significantly from core-measured values.

RAFT-DVC is a resolution‑aware family of recurrent all‑pairs field transform (RAFT) based digital volume correlation (DVC) solvers that use encoder downsampling factors of 2, 4, and 8. The solvers localize displacement to about 0.017 feature‑grid voxels, with raw‑volume error scaling roughly as 0.017 s voxels, and exhibit complementary operating regimes determined by displacement reach and volumetric‑texture compatibility. Synthetic benchmarks show comparable performance to tuned classical DVC for fine‑texture, small‑to‑moderate displacements, while outperforming it for coarse‑texture, large‑displacement scenarios; additional tests on confocal and micro‑CT images confirm the importance of matching solver regimes to deformation magnitude and texture, and demonstrate cross‑texture transfer and improved accuracy after correcting sampler geometry.
