Adsorption Hysteresis in Porous Media
The phenomenon of adsorption hysteresis in porous media is studied from a microscopic point of view via computer simulations based on statistical mechanics principles.

Sorption in disordered porous media
The lattice-gas model of sorption in disordered porous media is studied for a variety of settings, using existing, updated and newly developed numerical techniques. Firstly, we construct an efficient algorithm to calculate the exact partition function for small lattice-gas systems. The exact …

Studies in living porous media
… nutrients and ventilation. Unlike many nonliving porous media, they modify themselves to meet these demands; they are active. Using a combination of experiment, theory, and computation, we investigate several living porous media. First we consider termite mounds, meter-sized structures built by …

The Effects Of Diffusion, Capillary Heterogeneity, And Porous Media Morphology On CO2 Migration In Porous Media
… Ionic Liquid (RTIL) membrane. A metallic porous membrane was thoroughly saturated with Emim(Tf2N) and placed in a diffusion chamber. CO2 gas was injected into the upper diffusion chamber and was alloto completely diffuse through the RTIL into the lower diffusion chamber. Lag-time technique …

Laser induced fractures in porous media.
… of cutting a range of 5–15 m (average 10 m) of porous media depending on porosity and rock thermal properties, and this can yield a significant improvement in well productivity during transient flow and a reasonable improvement during pseudo steady state flow (approx. 2–3 Fold of Increase, FOI). …

Coupled transport in natural porous media
As the interactions between transport processes are important for a number of interesting systems, a set of partial differential equations and appropriate parameter functions for the study of coupled water, heat, gas and solute transport was formulated and a state of the art computer model for the …

Freeze fracturing of elastic porous media
… the phenomenon of fracturing of rocks and other porous media due to ice growth inside pre-existing faults and large pores. My aim is to explain the basic physical processes taking place inside a freezing elastic porous medium and develop a mathematical model to describe the growth of ice and …

Interfacial Fluid Dynamics in Porous Media
… emerges when one fluid displaces another in porous media, a physical situation prevalent in many clean energy production and storage applications. These patterns can be reminiscent of dielectric breakdown, diffusion-limited growth of crystals, or percolation clusters in polymer gelation, …

Multiphase immiscible flow through porous media
… governing the flow of the three fluid phase porous medium system with constant air phase pressure. Constitutive relationships for fluid conductivities and saturations as functions of fluid pressures which may be calibrated from two-phase laboratory measurements, are employed in the finite …

Flow and mixing in complex porous media
The flow and mixing of fluids in complex porous media is important in a large range of environmental settings, from groundwater flows to the geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO$_2$). This thesis investigates two distinct and fundamental features of such flows; the mixing of miscible fluids of …
