Fluid flow through porous media. Fluid flow through porous media is a subject of common interest and has emerged a separate field of study. The study of more general behaviour of porous media involving deformation of the solid frame is called poromechanics. The theory of porous flows has applications in inkjet printing [7] and nuclear waste ...
A porous medium is composed of fluid and solid domains, which act together to describe the mechanical behavior of the material. Natural substances including rocks, [2] soils, [3] biological tissues including heart [4] and cancellous bone, [5] and man-made materials such as foams, ceramics, and concrete [6] can be considered as porous media ...
In fluid mechanics, fluid flow through porous media is the manner in which fluids behave when flowing through a porous medium, for example sponge or wood, or when filtering water using sand or another porous material. As commonly observed, some fluid flows through the media while some mass of the fluid is stored in the pores present in the media.

Symbol used to represent in situ permeability tests in geotechnical drawings. In fluid mechanics, materials science and Earth sciences, the permeability of porous media (often, a rock or soil) is a measure of the ability for fluids (gas or liquid) to flow through the media; it is commonly symbolized as k.
The porous medium equation name originates from its use in describing the flow of an ideal gas in a homogeneous porous medium. [6] We require three equations to completely specify the medium's density , flow velocity field , and pressure : the continuity equation for conservation of mass; Darcy's law for flow in a porous medium; and the ideal gas equation of state.
Poroelasticity is a field in materials science and mechanics that studies the interaction between fluid flow, pressure and bulk solid deformation within a linear porous medium and it is an extension of elasticity and porous medium flow (diffusion equation). [1] The deformation of the medium influences the flow of the fluid and vice versa.
A porous medium or a porous material is a material containing pores (voids). The skeletal portion of the material is often called the "matrix" or "frame". The pores are typically filled with a fluid (liquid or gas). There are many natural nanoporous materials, but artificial materials can also be manufactured.
