Fundamentals of flow of fluids and transport of solutes and colloids in porous media

In this short course, we will cover the fundamentals of fluid flow and the transport of solutes and colloids in porous media.

Overview

The course includes constructing mathematical models for fluid flow using principles of rational thermodynamics, bridging scales from the molecular level to practical applications, such as CO₂ sequestration.

Lecturer: Prof. S. Majid Hassanizadeh (Stuttgart University, Utrecht University, KAUST)
