GEO 391 Reactive Flow in Porous Media
(unique 27250)

Reactive flow is a pervasive phenomenon in geosciences that creates patterns at all length scales that contain information about geologic processes. This course provides foundation for the subject based on the theory of hyperbolic conservation laws. All three major reaction phenomena sorption, dissolution/precipitation, and multi-phase flows with phase change are treated in a unified way. Lectures on general modeling concepts are complemented with seminar style discussion of research papers. (Spring 2012)

GEO 391 Geodynamics
(unique 27160)

A modern comprehensive introduction to continuum methods of physical modeling for Earth scientists. The conservation equations are discussed with a view towards modern computational geosciences. The general theory is specialized to limiting cases of linear elasticity and viscous flow as well as elastic plates and lubrication flows. Simplified geodynamic models are analyzed to provide physical insight and complemented with finite element analysis. (Spring 2013)
