The subsurface fluid mechanics of geologic carbon dioxide storage
In carbon capture and storage (CCS), CO₂ is captured at power plants and then injected into deep geologic reservoirs for long-term storage. While CCS may be critical for the continued use of fossil fuels in a carbon-constrained world, the subsurface behavior of CO₂ remains poorly understood, which …

Numerical Modeling of Geologic Carbon Dioxide Storage in Faulted Siliciclastic Settings
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a technology where CO₂ captured from point sources or the atmosphere is injected underground for permanent storage. CCS is part of a portfolio of technologies aimed at enabling the transition to a sustainable energy system with net-zero CO₂ emissions. This Thesis …

Flow through porous media : from mixing of fluids to triggering of earthquakes
… recovery by displacing oil with solvents such as carbon dioxide requires development of miscibility between the two fluids to maximize the displacement efficiency. Prevention of inadvertent triggering of earthquakes due to injection or production of fluids in the underground requires understanding …

Some problems in low Reynolds number environmental flows
… a few parameters. We study the fluid dynamics of carbon dioxide storage in heterogeneous aquifers, the migration of tracers in such flows and the interaction of lava flows with barriers. First, in chapter 2, we examine the injection of fluid of one viscosity and density into a horizontal permeable …
