Non-Newtonian Flow in Porous Media

En av de store prestasjonene på det nittende århundre var oppdagelsen av Navier-Stokes-ligningen som beskriver bevegelsen til vanlige væsker. Før det kom, kunne oppførselen til væsker katalogiseres, men ikke forutsies. Etterpå ble det å forutsi bevegelse av væsker et spørsmål om å løse ligningen ...

Porous Media Laboratory, Porøse-medier laboratoriet

Porøse media er faste materialer som er full av hull. Hvis disse hullene henger sammen, kan væsker eller gasser strømme gjennom dem. Hvordan de gjør dette utgjør porøse mediers fysikk. Når det er flere ikke-blandbare væsker som konkurrerer om de samme porene og det er overflatespenning mellom væs...

NANO2021-Nanoteknologi og nye materiale

Yield kinetics and creep in nanofibrous materials for bio-medical applications

Vårt team har primært fokusert på numerisk reproduksjon av hvordan polymeriske fibre ryker ved moderat strekk-belastning, forårsaket av den geometriske belastningen av individuelle kjeder og av termiske fluktuasjoner. Denne tilsynelatende enkle prosessen viser seg å være ytterst kompleks på den m...

Efficient CO2 Absorption in Water-Saturated Porous Media through Hydraulic Fracturing

Storing CO2 in porous rock formations that are already water saturated, it is necessary for the CO2 to displace or to be dissolved into the fluid. In either case, it is necessary to force the gas into the formation. If we envision pumping the CO2 into drained oil wells and these simply consis...

Role of Bursts in Fracture Front Propagation

This project relates to the study of the dynamics of a crack front propagating through a weak plane of a transparent block made of two Plexiglass (PMMA) plates annealed together. The main goal of the project is to study in a systematic and controlle d way, both experimentally and by simulat...

Search for reliable signals of catastrophic failure

A sudden catastrophic failure causes enormous damage in terms of properties and lives. However a reliable precursor of such failures can save a lot, by allowing evacuation and other precautionary measures. From this motivation, the main goal of our projec t is to identify reliable precursors of ...

The Role of Damage in Fracture Dynamics

A propagating crack tip in a medium poses immense intellectual challenges. Despite the apparent simplicity by which the tip moves, the underlying mechanisms are not at all trivial. In fact only the simplest configurations with a moving crack tip have to t his date been solved. An important aspect...

Fracture-Failure Phenomena in Disordered Media: Critical Behavior and Scaling Properties

The fracture-failure phenomena in heterogeneous material has attracted much scientific attention sence several decades. Despite many partial successes, a complete analytic formulation of this phenomena is still lacking. Among the model studies, the Fiber Bundle Models (FBM) and the Random Fuse M...

Two-phase flow, foams and emulsion in porous media

Study dynamics of interfaces in porous media using the numerical model developed by Aker, Knudsen, Måløy and Hansen in close collaboration with Professor Måløy's experimental activity. The model is at this point not capable of handling foams (i.e. multipl e interfaces in a single pore). The focal...
