Abstract: A simulation device includes a simulation unit which executes, by simulation, a motion program containing a command velocity and a command acceleration of the drive shaft, and a motion waiting instruction, a storage unit which stores in time series a line number of the motion program and the command velocity and the command acceleration at the line number associated with one another; an execution time calculation unit which calculates the execution time of the motion program for each of the line numbers stored in the storage unit based on a simulation result; and a waiting time calculation unit which calculates the motion waiting time in accordance with the motion waiting instruction based on the execution time calculated by the execution time calculation unit.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods of modeling stimulation treatments, such as designing matrix treatments for subterranean formations penetrated by a wellbore, to enhance hydrocarbon recovery. The modeling methods describe the growth rate and the structure of the dissolution pattern formed due to the injection of a treatment fluid in a porous medium, based on calculating the length scales for dominant transport mechanism(s) and reaction mechanism(s) in the direction of flow lX and the direction transverse to flow lT. Methods of the invention may further include introducing a treatment fluid into the formation, and treating the formation.
