Mechanics and Physics of Porous Solids addresses the mechanics andphysics of deformable porous materials whose porous space is filledby one or several fluid mixtures interacting with the solid matrix.Coussy uses the language of thermodynamics to frame the discussionof this topic and bridge the gap between physicists and engineers,and organises the material in such a way that individual phases areexplored, followed by coupled problems of increasing complexity.This structure allows the reader to build a solid understanding ofthe physical processes occurring in the fluids and then poroussolids.
Mechanics and Physics of Porous Solids offers a criticalreference on the physics of multiphase porous materials - keyreading for engineers and researchers in structural and materialengineering, concrete, wood and materials science, rock and soilmechanics, mining and oil prospecting, biomechanics.
