A survey is given of continuum theories that have been developed to model mixtures of
immiscible constituents, such as bubbly liquids, fluid-particle mixtures, fluid saturated porous …

Computational physics has become an essential research and interpretation tool in many
fields. Particularly in reservoir geophysics, ultrasonic and seismic modeling in porous media …

Wave propagation is an important topic in engineering sciences, especially, in the field of
solid mechanics. A description of wave propagation phenomena is given by Graff [98]: The …

In a significantly revised English edition the text provides a solid course on mechanics of
porous & fractured media (mainly of geomaterials). Part I focuses on the continuum theory of …

In this investigation, the general formalism for the field equations governing the dynamic
response of fluid-saturated porous media is analyzed and employed for the study of …

This article presents an overview on poroelastodynamic models and some analytical
solutions. A brief summary of Biot's theory and of other poroelastic dynamic governing …

With the growing development and utilization of underground space and resources, rock
masses exposed to high stresses and pore pressure, large temperature changes, and …

Biot's theory of porous media governs the wave propagation in a porous, elastic solid
infiltrated with fluid. In this theory, a second compressional wave, known as the slow wave …

We investigate the problem of wave propagation in a porous medium, in the framework of
Biot's theory, computing the numerical solution of the differential equations by a grid method …

Due to their suitability as mixing devices for heat and mass and as chemical reactors,
fluidized beds are widely employed in petroleum refining and in coal gasification and …
