Accumulation of Colloidal Particles in Flow Junctions Induced by Fluid Flow and Diffusiophoresis

The flow of solutions containing solutes and colloidal particles in porous media is widely found in systems including underground aquifers, hydraulic fractures, estuarine or coastal habitats, water filtration systems, etc. In such systems, solute gradients occur when there is a local change in the s...
