Pore-scale simulation of fine particles migration in porous media using coupled CFD-DEM by Ahmed Elrahmani (17128837)

“…Simulations indicate that permeability reduction due to fine migration in porous media is directly proportional to flow velocity. The time required to develop bridging and subsequent clogging of the pore space that lead to permeability reduction decreases as the flow velocity increases. …”

Mapping subnational HIV mortality in six Latin American countries with incomplete vital registration systems by Local Burden of Disease HIV Collaborators (13279180)

“…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">All countries displayed over a 40-fold difference in HIV mortality between municipalities with the highest and lowest age-standardized HIV mortality rate in the last year of study for men, and over a 20-fold difference for women. Despite decreases in national HIV mortality in all countries—apart from Ecuador—across the period of study, we found broad variation in relative changes in HIV mortality at the municipality level and increasing relative inequality over time in all countries. …”
