GEOLAB project – webinar di presentazione delle infrastrutture di ricerca – 23 giugno 2021
Thanks to the GEOLAB project, it is possible to offer – free of charge – a total of 11 research facilities in the fields of geotechnical and environmental engineering. You can find information about these 11 research infrastructures in the attached PDF file.
As you and/or your research team may be interested on using some of these research infrastructures, we let you know that on June 23rd, from 10 to 12 AM (CEST), a webinar to present them and the call for proposal mechanisms will be celebrated.
The GEOLAB project will last for three years and there will be call for proposals every year.

Post doctoral position at INERIS (Verneuil-en-Halatte, France)
Ineris proposes a post-doctoral position on the understanding and modelling of THMC processes in deep geothermal systems.
The postdoctoral position is offered in the Natural Hazards, Underground structures and storages unit within the Site and Territory Division. The unit activity covers all aspects of risks prevention related to the exploitation and post-exploitation of ground and underground including underground excavations, abandoned mines, salt caverns, deep boreholes, gas underground storage, geothermal systems and rock slopes. The core expertise of the unit is numerical modelling of thermo-hydromechanical and chemical (THMC) coupled processes in geomechanics.
This post-doctoral is expected to begin on 15th March 2021 for 6 months. The application should be submitted in French or in English. It must include a resume (including a list of publications and the names and positions of your former research advisers) and a cover letter. —> Mail to: zady.ouraga@ineris.fr
Post-Doc position at Ecole Centrale de Nantes (France)
Hydro-mechanical instabilities in low permeability geomaterials
The topic deals with the experimental identification of quantitative interactions between the micro-structure of low permeability geomaterials, the heterogeneous fluid flow through them and their deformation. In particular coupled hydro-mechanical instabilities, say couplings between fluid fingering and strain localization, will be quantitatively investigated. The study is developed within the framework of the ANR project called «STOWENG» underground STOrage of reneWable ENergies in low permeability Geomaterials.
Starting date: 2021-01-01
