[1] Most existing stochastic models are developed for unimodal porous media that may be well characterized with only the first two statistical moments. However, the distribution of hydraulic properties, such as hydraulic conductivity, may possess a multiplicity of modes; thus the first two moments may not be adequate to characterize properties of such porous media. In turn, the stochastic model...

Efficient mass transport through porous networks is essential for achieving rapid response times in sensing applications utilizing porous materials. In this work, we show that open-ended porous membranes can overcome diffusion challenges experienced by closed-ended porous materials in a microfluidic environment. A theoretical model including both transport and reaction kinetics is employed to s...
