OUR PROJECTS & TEAM
SMILE is researching eleven innovative geo-energies projects thanks to eleven doctoral candidates that have the guidance and support of researchers and companies around Europe.
DC6-PhD: Use of Invasion Percolation methods to model gravity segregation in CO2/HC/brine systems
The objective of this project is to enhance the understanding of gravity segregation in CO2, hydrocarbon (HC), and brine systems by improving the modelling capabilities of fluid mixing in highly heterogeneous, brine-saturated rock. The project aims…
DC7-PhD: Delayed induced seismicity in a THM framework: Upscaling application to deep geothermal fractured reservoirs
The objective of this project is to develop a fully coupled THM (Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical) framework with a dynamic fracturing model. The framework will be applied to different project configurations to optimize production and minimize the risk of…
DC8-PhD: Simulation of thermal, hydraulic and mechanical stress distribution in heterogeneous layered reservoirs
The objective of this project is to identify the key processes that influence surface deformation during fluid injection, understand the geological facies controls on strain transfer, and train the student in using numerical codes for THM problems.…
DC9-PhD: Advanced Persistent Scattered Interferometry (PSI) techniques for ground motion monitoring
The objective of this project is to develop advanced Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) techniques for ground motion monitoring in the context of SMILE. The project will focus on selecting measurement points using amplitude-based,…
DC10-PhD: Automated analysis of ground deformation time series
The objective of this project is to develop an automated software tool for analyzing ground deformation time series obtained from Galileo-enabled low-cost GNSS receivers. The tool will also incorporate area-wise DInSAR monitoring and utilize…
