Theory of Porous Media

Focusing on the theories of porous media, this book provides a comprehensive examination of fundamental equations applicable across various engineering fields, such as material science and chemical engineering. It formulates constitutive equations for both elastic and plastic frictional materials, while also detailing the historical evolution of porous media theory. For the first time, it presents a unique perspective on fluid-saturated porous solids, offering insights into both the theoretical framework and its contemporary relevance.
