Modeling coupled systems of free flow adjacent to a porous medium by means of fully resolved Navier-Stokes equations is limited by the immense computational cost and is thus only feasible for relatively small domains. Model reduction allows…
Porous structures are intricate solid materials with numerous small pores, extensively used in fields like medicine, chemical engineering, and aerospace. However, the design of such structures using computer-aided tools is a time-consuming…
A homogenization approach is proposed for the treatment of porous wall boundary conditions in the computation of compressible viscous flows. Like any other homogenization approach, it eliminates the need for pore-resolved fluid meshes and…

Prediction of flow to boreholes or excavations in fractured low-permeability rocks is important for resource extraction and disposal or sequestration activities. Analytical solutions for fluid pressure and flowrate, when available, are…
A pore-scale model is introduced for two-phase flow in dense packings of polydisperse spheres. The model is developed as a component of a more general hydromechanical coupling framework based on the discrete element method, which will be…

Holistic understanding of multiphase reactive flow mechanisms such as CO$_2$ dissolution, multiphase displacement, and snap-off events are vital for optimisation of large-scale industrial operations like CO$_2$ sequestration, enhanced oil…
Hybrid methods for simulating rarefied gas flows reduce computational cost by coupling a particle-based model, typically the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method, to a continuum-based solver, i.e. a computational fluid dynamics (CFD)…
Dissolution in porous media and fractured rocks alters both the chemical composition of the fluid and the physical properties of the solid. Depending on system conditions, reactive flow may enlarge pores uniformly, widen pre-existing…
Predicting the permeability of porous media in saturated and partially saturated conditions is of crucial importance in many geo-engineering areas, from water resources to vadose zone hydrology or contaminant transport predictions. Many…
The prediction of pressure and flow distributions inside porous membranes is important if the geometry deviates from single-bore tubular geometries. This task remains challenging, especially when considering local porosity variations caused…

We study a method based on Balancing Domain Decomposition by Constraints (BDDC) for a numerical solution of a single-phase flow in heterogenous porous media. The method solves for both flux and pressure variables. The fluxes are resolved in…
Microfluidic devices offer unique opportunities to directly observe multiphase flow in porous media. However, as a direct representation of flow in geological pore networks, conventional microfluidics face several challenges. One is that…
In this paper, we introduce a mortar-based approach to discretizing flow in fractured porous media, which we term the mixed-dimensional flux coupling scheme. Our formulation is agnostic to the discretizations used to discretize the fluid…
Three different porous substrates (with different pore sizes, s, and permeabilities, K) are used to examine their effect on the structure of boundary layer flow over them. The flow is characterised with single-point hot-wire measurements as…
