Marco De Paoli: Flows in evolving porous materials

From heat storage and underground CO2 sequestration to the physics of ocean ice: for many phenomena, it is important to understand how fluids flow through (and shape) porous materials. Suppose a large amount of CO2 is pumped deep into the ground so that it is kept out of the atmosphere and does not harm the climate.
