Rapid advances in the engineering applications can bring further areas to provide the
opportunity to manipulate anisotropic structures for direct productivity in design of …

The goal of this book is to investigate the three-dimensional problems of the mathematical
theories of elasticity and thermoelasticity for multi-porosity materials. The purposes of this …

This paper presents a general constitutive model to describe the coupling among bulk solid
stress, pore fluid pressure, and adsorption in a fluid-saturated multiple-porosity elastic solid …

A dual-continuum model can offer a practical approach to understanding first-order
behaviours of poromechanically coupled multiscale systems. To close the governing …

Fractured porous rock comprises the matrix and fracture systems with double-porosity and
double-permeability. This paper treats the fracture system as a porous media due to the …

Compared to traditional actuators (such as piezoelectric ceramics), metal actuators possess
the advantages of a low energy consumption, large strain amplitude, and high strain energy …

Reservoir depletion may induce substantial changes in the stress state of the subsurface
rock. The interaction between the pore fluid pressure and rock stress alters the reservoir rock …

Flow of gas through porous media can be coupled with sorption against the pore walls and
deformation of the solid phase. This paper presents a thermodynamic description of the …

The elastic moduli dispersion of materials is a topic of great interest in many engineering
practices. Such dispersion is regularly measured on laboratory-preferred cylindrical samples …

Conventional drilling design tends to inappropriately predict the mud density required for
borehole stability of deep fractured porous rocks, such as shale, tight sandstone, and hot dry …
