Title: Effect of scale on flow and transport properties in porous media

Behzad Ghanbarian is an Associate Professor at the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Texas at Arlington. His research interests center around a wide range of multidisciplinary topics, such as climate change, unconventional reservoirs, upscaling techniques, and fluid flow and contaminant transport in heterogeneous porous media.

“A long-standing problem in the porous media community, therefore, has been relating a property’s value at one scale (e.g., field) to its value at another scale (e.g., core). In this talk, I focus on finite size effect and present applications of…” (read the full abstract here)
