Warwick extensive experience using the geothermal simulation code TOUGH2, and has developed special-purpose versions of this code for supercritical fluids and for high temperature, hyper-saline brines. His research interests include developing software, modelling fracture networks and flow in fractured rock, and combining fluid flow and rock-mechanics codes.
In the GNG Programme, Warwick will investigate large-scale permeability conditions and the influence of brittle-ductile on different rock types in the TVZ rifting environment.
