Research
Experiences
University of South Carolina. At the University of South Carolina, I designed an ex- perimental basin of a submarine meandering channel with a floodplain to model the fluid dynamics of turbidity currents and to map their associated in-channel and levee deposits. The research is significant in understanding the current dynamics along the channel and quantitatively determine the sediment spatial distribution which has been mapped accurately using a precise laser equipment. This work provided insights in better under- standing of deepwater reservoir architecture and sedimentary structures. Most importantly, geometrical realistic rules derived from this research findings were useful to constraint the uncert...
