Lectures > Lecture 5

Lecture 5 by Dominique Bernard, CNRS, Univ. Bordeaux, Bordeaux INP, ICMCB, UMR 5026, Pessac, France.

Title: Finite volume and effective properties of porous materials.

Finite volume methods are widely used for solving diffusion-advection problems and, when considering transport at the pore scale, voxelized images issued from micro-tomographic acquisitions can almost directly be used as computation meshes. Details of this apparently straightforward workflow will be explored during this lecture. Several examples will illustrate the main points and some recent developments from the literature will be presented as a conclusion.

Biography: Dominique Bernard is CNRS Senior Researcher at ICMCB (Institute of Condensed Matter Chemistry of Bordeaux). His research interests include transport in porous media, mainly at the pore scale, and effective properties computation using 3D images.
