VILDE BRÅTEN – DEPARTMENT OF MATERIALS SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING Vilde Bråten has submitted the following academic thesis as part of the doctoral work at the Norwegian University of Science (NTNU): “Fundamental Aspects of Thermodynamics of Small Systems Investigated Through Molecular Simulations and Theoretical Descriptions” Assessment Committee The Faculty of Natural Science has appointed the following
Book description An invaluable reference for graduate students and academic researchers, this book introduces the basic terminology, methods and theory of the physics of flow in porous media. Geometric concepts, such as percolation and fractals, are explained and simple simulations are created, providing readers with both the knowledge and the analytical tools to deal with
The important paper from Subhadeep Roy, Håkon Pedersen, Santanu Sinha & Alex Hansen was published in Transport in Porous Media in May 2022. Click on the following link to read it: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11242-022-01783-7#article-info Abstract: We present a continuum (i.e., an effective) description of immiscible two-phase flow in porous media characterized by two fields, the pressure and the saturation. Gradients in
Defense of thesis 5 October: Michael Tobias Rauter – Faculty of Natural Sciences, NTNU Michael Tobias Rauter – THE DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY Michael Tobias Rauter has submitted the following academic thesis as part of the doctoral work at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU): Fluid Transport through Nanoporous Media in the Presence of
The paper from Federico Lanza, Alberto Rosso, Laurent Talon & Alex Hansen was accepted and published on August 27th, 2022, under Transport in Porous Media. Congratulations! Abstract: Fluid blobs in an immiscible Newtonian fluid flowing in a capillary tube with varying radius show highly nonlinear behavior. We consider here a generalization of previously obtained results to blobs of non-Newtonian
