Description:
This course is focused on the transfer/transport problems in porous media
(soils), from phenomenological description to theoretical and numerical
modelling.
The main mechanisms involved in the transport processes are described
and identified experimentally. The modelling of flow and transport in
porous media using an up-scaling approach by homogenization, is
presented. In particular, three fundamental problems are treated
theoretically and numerically: water flow, diffusion and dispersion.
Two computer sessions using Comsol Multiphysics code complete the first
part of the course.
In the second part of the course, some particular problems related to soil
contamination/remediation are discussed. These problems are: reactive
permeable barriers, phyto-remediation and the complex role of bacteria in
contamination and decontamination of soils.
