Workshop of CODE_BRIGHT

The Workshop for CODE_BRIGHT users is organised by the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) and will be held on May 22, 2024, at UPC Campus Nord room D2-216.

CODE_BRIGHT is a general-purpose code for the 3-D analysis of coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) phenomena in geological media (including conservative transport of chemical species). Application fields cover, among others, geoenvironmental engineering (multi-barrier protection systems, radioactive waste disposal schemes, clay liners, two-phase liquid/gas flow, soil-atmosphere interaction; geothermal energy) and geotechnical engineering (embankments, earth dams, expansive and collapsible soils, pavements, tunnels)...

The workshop aims to bring together scientists and engineers with different backgrounds for one day of interaction to share experiences and promote joint initiatives. The workshop expects to cover topics such as:

• Standard applications
• New developments in advanced applications
• Prospective developments

Call for contributions to the workshop is now open. Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract with a length between four and six pages (including figures and references) not later than May 15. Registration is free and both registration and submission of abstracts will be done trough the e-mail address: code.bright@upc.edu. The Workshop Proceedings will consist of a booklet containing the extended abstracts.

If you have any questions please ask in the CODE_BRIGHT forum.
