We investigate fundamental physical properties of porous media, i.e. tortuosity, permeability
using theoretical and computational tools:
- computational fluid dynamics
- percolation theory.
We focus on computation of macroscopic parameters from microscale flow solutions.
An exemplary 3D streamlines in the fluid flow through complex porous structure.
