Theory of porous media. Highlights in historical development and current state

From MaRDI portal





The author presents a consistent approach to material-independent fundamental equations of the theory of porous media, the development of constitutive equations for frictional materials in the elastic and plastic range and the historical development of porous media theory. For the first time, a unique treatment of fluid-saturated porous solids is presented containing the historical development as well as the current state of of the corresponding theory. The book contains the following chapters: 1. Introduction; 2. The early era; 3. The classical era; 4. The modern era; 5. Current state of porous media theory; 6. Conclusions and outlook; Appendix with: A. Evaluation of the entropy inequality; B. Introduction to the vector and tensor calculus for engineers; C. Geometric representation of principal stresses, stress invariants and the Mohr-Coulomb theory; References; Author index; Subject Index.
