A major difficulty in modeling multiphase flow in porous media is the emergence of trapped
phases. Our experiments demonstrate that gas can be trapped in either single-pores, multipores, or in large
connected networks. These large connected clusters can comprise up to eight grain volumes and can contain
up to 50%...

Easier access to X-ray microtomography (lCT) facilities has provided much new insight from high-resolution imaging for various problems in porous media research. Pore space analysis with respect to functional properties usually requires segmentation of the intensity data into different classes. Image segmentation
is a nontrivial problem that may have a...
