Fractured porous media modelling and simulation address the complexities inherent in natural and engineered subsurface systems. These systems comprise a porous matrix interspersed with fractures, ...

Porous media play a critical role in various industrial fields due to their complex pore networks and considerable specific surface areas. The transport and reaction phenomena within porous media are ...

A general approach is proposed for defining the macroscopic free-energy function of a saturated porous medium subjected to finite deformations, under isothermal conditions, in the case of compressible ...

Previous chapters have addressed fracture geometry, physical and geomechanical properties of single fractures, fracture detection, and the interpretation of hydraulic and tracer tests. All of these ...
