Description for Thermo-Poroelasticity and Geomechanics
hardcover. A full account of thermo-poroelasticity and thermo-poromechanics with derivations to problems, for both experienced and novice researchers. Num Pages: 264 pages, 83 b/w illus. BIC Classification: TTU. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 160 x 235 x 17. Weight in Grams: 554.
Investigations of multi-physical processes in geomaterials have gained increasing attention due to the ongoing interest in solving complex geoenvironmental problems. This book provides a comprehensive exposition of the classical theory of thermo-poroelasticity, complemented by complete examples to problems in thermo-poromechanics that are used to validate computational results from multi-physics codes used in practice. The methodologies offer an insight into real-life problems related to modern environmental geosciences, including nuclear waste management, geologic sequestration of greenhouse gases to mitigate climate change, and the impact of energy resources recovery on groundwater resources. A strong focus is placed on analytical approaches to benchmark the ... Read more

Reviews for Thermo-Poroelasticity and Geomechanics
'Selvadurai and Suvorov provide a thorough and rigorous introduction to the foundations of thermo-poro-mechanics of fluid-infiltrated elastic media, focused on geophysical and geotechnical applications. Fundamental analytical solutions are derived for simple geometries (slits, cylinders, spheres) and compared to results of popular computational methodologies, with results serving as the basis for application to key current areas of geoscience and geotechnology.'
