Upscaling Software prototype: Generates input data to simulation/upscaling software SSL2D from raster images of fractured sections: Image Numerical flow simulation on SSL2D successfully tested on real case sections Single phase flow simulated with periodic boundary conditions Effective permeability full tensor represents the whole (homogenized) fractured flow unit. Postdoc: - Numerical aspects of transient two-phase flow simulation - Software code for transient two-phase flow simulation including full tensor permeabilities on unstructured grids
