Abstract Using the principle of diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA), a new model is introduced to simulate the displacement of one fluid by another in porous media. The results agree with experiments, apparently they do not leave out film-flow phenomena. Simultaneously, we also present a new numerical method to treat our results by the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). All these will be helpful for analysing similar subjects.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
