Biografie
For more details please see my department page: http://www.citg.tudelft.nl/pj-vardon
Phil is an Associate Professor in the Section of Geo-Engineering. He leads the department theme in Geothermal Science and Engineering. His research is into complex coupled processes in the geotechnical arena. He focuses on the impacts on soils / geomaterials of various processes including heat, moisture and contaminant movement, including practical applications such as geothermal energy, slope stability and radioactive waste disposal. He teaches on the undergraduate Soil Mechanics course and the postgraduate Geothermal Energy course.

Le trophée des Étoiles de l'Europe - Innovation prize
The Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation in France created the honorary prize entitled "the Stars of Europe". This trophy aims to reward and promote the European commitment of teams of researchers who have distinguished themselves by the success of their projects. The Stars of Europe trophy rewards bringing together and mobilizing the research community to celebrate the successes achieved in Europe.
The project NARSIS was granted the prize with a special mention for innovation. Vardon was a work package leader in the project.
