Mechanics Of Porous And Fractured Media

Download or read book Mechanics Of Porous And Fractured Media written by V N Nikolaevskij and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1990-08-30 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a significantly revised English edition the text provides a solid course on mechanics of porous & fractured media (mainly of geomaterials). Part I focuses on the continuum theory of the dynamic fracture and deformation of bodies with complex rheology, including the dilatancy theory. Applications are connected with dynamics large scale processes, blast waves and with structure of the Earth's crust. Part II focuses on the effects of fluid saturation of pores and transfer phenomena. Applications are connected with seismic waves, oil and gascondensate recovery, explosion works, physico-chemical processes.
