This book treats the subject of porous flow and its applications in three engineering and scientific problems. The first major part of the book is devoted to so

This book treats the mechanics of porous materials infiltrated with a fluid (poromechanics), focussing on its linear theory (poroelasticity). Porous materials f

The present volume offers a state-of-the-art report on the various recent sci entific developments in the Theory of Porous Media (TPM) comprehending the basic t

This is a consistent treatment of the material-independent fundamental equations of the theory of porous media, formulating constitutive equations for frictiona

Porous media are broadly found in nature and their study is of high relevance in our present lives. In geosciences porous media research is fundamental in appli
