This book provides a unified and systematic continuum approach for engineers and applied physicists working on the modelling of porous media. Self-contained, it sets out_from a macroscopic point of view_the main concepts and results of deformable porous media subject to the flow of one or several fluids. The theory presented includes developments in the areas of thermodynamics, poroelastoplasticity, poroviscoplasticity, wave propagation and surfaces of discontinuity, boundary value problems and numerical methods, as well as chemico-mechanical couplings. It can be used for numerous diversified applications in geophysics, civil engineering, biomechanics, material science, etc.Coussy, Olivier is the author of 'Mechanics of Porous Continua' with ISBN 9780471952671 and ISBN 0471952672.
