Yaniv did BSc in physics and oceanography in the Hebrew University, MSc and Ph.D. in the Weizmann Institute, and postdoc in the soft matter physics lab at Harvard University. Currently, Yaniv is heading the porous media visualization (PMV) lab in the Technion, where investigates may aspects of flow, reaction, and deformation in porous media. To study that in the PMV lab we replace the porous soil and rock with an equivalent transparent porous material developed in the lab. The transparent porous material allows direct quantification of the following processes occurring in soil and rock: transport in porous media, reaction rates of chemicals during transport, displacement of resident phase in the porous media by a miscible or immiscible phase, and deformation of the porous material during the transport. Advanced microscopy methods do the quantification and in-house using light-sheet microscopy coupled with an ultra-high-speed camera with 105 frames per second. This unique experimental setup gives access to the hidden dynamics of real soil physical processes.

Evgeny studies reactive transport in heterogeneous porous media by means of numerical simulations. He has completed M.Sc in Mechanical Eng. from Tel Aviv Uni. and B.Sc in Aerospace Eng. from Technion, specializing in Computational Mechanics. His aim is to apply his previous experience to the of field Earth Sciences, to understand better and contribute to the subject of ground water flow and contaminant transport in geological formations . Besides science, his main interest is playing, composing and performing music, please check out falkorensemble.com!

Arnold investigate the injection-induced deformation of a unique rock-like medium mimicking the deformation of sandstone, yet under low pressure. This unique medium allows him to track the local elastic and inelastic deformation of the transparent artificial rock under various pressures while measuring the flow rate and calculate the changing permeability.

Tongzhou is a master's student in Environmental studies working on flow and reaction between miscible phases in porous media. He aims to find the physical and chemical stability of CO2 sequestration; to do that, she uses microscopy and microfluidics to measure the flow, mixing, and reaction of miscible phases.
