Flow in Porous Media
Abstract:
I'll demonstrate some simple flow in porous media in a contraption that looks like a large ant farm, and describe the basic mathematical models. Then I'll talk about what we know and don't know when we work on real problems. I'll briefly describe some numerical methods for solving porous flow problems, and indicate how these can be used to help us determine the unknowns. By the end of the talk, the students should have some idea of what the KDI project is about, and how they might get involved.
