Particulate Modeling of Sand Production Using Coupled DEM-LBM

Sand production is a complex phenomenon caused by the erosion of borehole walls during the extraction of hydrocarbons. In this paper, the sanding process in a typical Thick-Walled Hollow Cylinder (TWHC) test is numerically simulated. The main objective of the study is to model the particulate mechan...
