Sedimentation–consolidation of a double porosity material

A variational approach to double-porosity problems

In this paper we outline an approach by Γ-convergence to some problems related to ‘double-porosity’ homogenization. Various such models have been discussed in the mathematical literature, the first rigorous result for a linear double-porosity model having been obtained by Arbogast, Douglas and Hornung in [7]. The two-scale convergence approach to double-porosity problems was developed by Allair...

State Space Approach to Plane Deformation in Elastic Material with Double Porosity

The present paper is to focus on a boundary value problem in a homogeneous, isotropic, elastic body with double porosity. After developing mathematical formulation, a state space approach has been applied to investigate the problem. As an application of the approach, normal force has been taken to illustrate the utility of the approach. The expressions for the components of normal stress and eq...

Thermomechanical Response in Thermoelastic Medium with Double Porosity

A dynamic two dimensional problem of thermoelasticity with double porous structure has been considered to investigate the disturbance due to normal force and thermal source. Laplace and Fourier transform technique is applied to the governing equations to solve the problem. The transformed components of stress and temperature distribution are obtained .The resulting expressions are obtained in t...

A Coupled Cosserat Two-Phase Double Porosity Flow Model

Rock strata in a coal mining environment are essentially bedded in nature and hence exhibit specific load-deformation characteristics. Mining may induce shearing as well as separation along the bedding planes which may result in bending and subsequent fracturing of the rock layer. This on the other hand may substantially change the in situ fluid flow properties of the rock mass, such as permeab...
