This research project is one of a number of projects at this institution. It is in competition for funding with one or more of these projects. Usually the project which receives the best applicant will be awarded the funding. The funding is only available to UK citizens or those who have been resident in the UK for a period of 3 years or more. Some projects, which are funded by charities or by the universities themselves may have more stringent restrictions.
Fluid mechanics problems often involve fluid flows over porous materials. Examples of practical applications include flow through atmospheric and aquatic vegetation, coastal structures, and movement of biological fluids through various tissues. Read more

Fluid flow in fractured subsurface porous media is a complex process due to the presence of high-permeability fracture networks. During Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) and geological sequestration of CO2 processes interactions of rocks and fluids need to be understood to optimise the performance of the processes. Read more
