When
and Where
Organized by the Macsinet
Working Group “ Filtration Problems in Porous Media and Paper Manufacturing”
at the
Kennispoort Building (indicated as KP on the map), Eindhoven
University of Technology (The Netherlands) on 9-10 May 2003.
Registration fee:
€ 60
(conference dinner included).
Introduction:
Among the needs of
industry with respect to industrial mathematics in this field are:
- dealing with multiple
scales (micro, meso, macro) and upscaling properties of porous media
as permeability, mechanical properties, etc.
- investigation of
strongly coupled processes as flow in deformable porous media, multi-component
flow, interaction of surface flow and porous media flow, etc.
- identification
of parameters and constitutive relations
- algorithms and
software for numerical simulation
These needs arise
in several industrial activities:
- production of paper and board
- reservoir engineering
- medical instrumentation
In porous media it is usually very difficult to perform adequate measurements
to determine parameters and constitutive relations. It is even difficult
to determine the right constitutive behaviour, e.g. is some deformable
porous medium elastic, visco-elastic or plastic? Reasons for these difficulties
are the depth of the porous medium (oil reservoirs), the scale differences
of the porous medium (paper) and the variability of the porous medium
(living tissues). Therefore mathematical models are needed to have the
possibility to perform various simulations, or to derive macro-models
from micro-models.
In all of these areas mathematical investigations are carried out. After
the
previous meetings in Göteborg and Kaiserslautern, this meeting will
concentrate on clarifying the needs from industry and industrially oriented
research institutes.
