Description for Homogenization and Porous Media
Hardback. This book offers a systematic, rigorous treatment of upscaling procedures related to physical modeling for porous media on micro-, meso- and macro-scales, including detailed studies of micro-structure systems and computational results for dual-porosity models. Editor(s): Hornung, U. Series: Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics. Num Pages: 295 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBKJ; TBJ; TC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 17. Weight in Grams: 597.
For several decades developments in porous media have taken place in almost independent areas. In civilengineering, many papers were publisheddealing with the foundations offlow and transport through porous media.
