Research Interests

Numerical modeling of flow and transport processes in porous and fractured-porous media.

The main motivation for my research is to increase our understanding and improve the description of:

  • CO2-based geothermal systems and geological CO2 storage in porous and fractured-porous reservoirs,
  • enhanced geothermal systems.
