معرفی
Meissam Bahlali is a Researcher at Imperial College London's Department of Earth Science & Engineering within the Faculty of Engineering, part of the Novel Reservoir and Simulation group (NORMS). He specializes in fluid mechanics and applied mathematics with applications to porous media flow, geothermal energy, and atmospheric dynamics.
Educational Background:
- PhD in Fluid Mechanics (2015-2018) from CEREA, École des Ponts ParisTech/EDF R&D
- Postdoctoral Researcher at Aix-Marseille Université (2020)
- Research Associate at Imperial College London (2019)
Research Focus: His work spans stochastic fluid mechanics models, unstructured adaptive mesh techniques for density-dependent flows in porous media, lattice Boltzmann methods for moving boundaries, and applications to saline intrusion, geothermal storage, and copper transport in sedimentary basins. He has contributed to over 15 peer-reviewed publications and presented at major conferences like AGU, EGU, and SEG.
Teaching & Supervision: He has supervised 1 PhD and 2 MSc students (2024), taught MSc courses on geo-energy systems, and delivered training sessions on computational fluid dynamics. He also served as an examiner for a PhD defense on Lagrangian pollutant dispersion models.
Affiliations: Active in NORMS group, with links to ResearchGate, LinkedIn, and a personal website. His work integrates numerical methods, geoscience, and environmental engineering to address challenges in resource modeling and climate systems.
