The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Efficient extraction of networks from three‐dimensional porous media (2007, methodology): “This has also been done directly from 3-D microtomography images [Lindquist et al., 2000; Silin et al., 2003].”
Fluid flow in porous media with rough pore‐solid interface (2016, methodology): “Although different algorithms [see e.g., Lindquist et al., 1996; Silin et al., 2003; Øren and Bakke, 2003] have been developed to quantify pore space geometrical properties and topological characteristics in porous media, analysis of three-dimensional images and identification of pore radius, its…”
A New Method for Generating Pore-Network Models of Porous Media (2010, methodology): “They have utilized the concept of “maximal balls” (Silin et al. 2003) to compute the locations and sizes of pores and throats and to create a topologically equivalent representation of 3D images.”
Finite-Difference Approximation for Fluid-Flow Simulation and Calculation of Permeability in Porous Media (2012, methodology): “The 3D grid-blocks are obtained from numerical grain pack simulations (Silin et al. 2003), or from the X-ray micro-tomography images (Jin et al. 2007; Shabro et al. 2010).”
