Coussy uses the language of thermodynamics to frame the discussion of this topic and bridge the gap between physicists and engineers, and organises the material in such a way that individual phases are explored, followed by coupled problems of increasing complexity. This structure allows the reader to build a solid understanding of the physical processes occurring in the fluids and then porous solids.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cp\u003eMechanics and Physics of Porous Solids offers a critical reference on the physics of multiphase porous materials - key reading for engineers and researchers in structural and material engineering, concrete, wood and materials science, rock and soil mechanics, mining and oil prospecting, biomechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eForeword  \u003cp\u003e1 The Strange World of Porous Solids\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Fluid Mixtures\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Chemical potential\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Gibbs-Duhem Equality\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Ideal Mixtures\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Regular Solutions\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 The Deformable Porous Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.1 Strain\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.2 Stress\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.3 Strain Work\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.4 From Solids to Porous Solids\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 The Saturated Poroelastic Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.1 The Poroelastic Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.2 Filling the Porous Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.3 The Thermoporoelastic Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.4 The Poroviscoelastic Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Fluid Transport and Deformation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.1 Transport Laws\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.2 Coupling the Deformation and the Flow\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.3 Consolidation of a Soil Layer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Surface Energy and Capillarity\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.1 Physics and Mechanics of Interfaces\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.2 Capillarity in Porous Solids\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.3 Transport in Unsaturated Porous Solids\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 The Unsaturated Poroelastic Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.1 Interface Stress as a Pre-Stress\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.2 Energy Balance for the Unsaturated Porous Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.3 The Linear Unsaturated Poroelastic Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.4 Extending Linear Unsaturated Poroelasticity\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Uncon.ned Phase Transition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.1 Chemical Potential and Phase Transition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.2 Liquid-Vapor Transition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.3 Liquid-Solid Transition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.4 Gas bubble formation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8.5 Surface Energy and Phase Transition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Phase Transition in Porous Solids\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9.1 In-Pore Phase Transition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9.2 Kinetics and Mechanics of Drying\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9.3 Mechanics of Con.ned Crystallization\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 The Poroplastic Solid\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.1 Basic Concepts of Plasticity\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.2 From Plasticity to Poroplasticity\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10.3 From material to structure\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 By Way of Conclusion\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Mechanical engineering \u0026amp; materials [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Mechanical engineering \u0026amp; materials\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Mechanical%20engineering%20\u0026amp;%20materials%20%5BTG%5D%22\"\u003eTG\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52278024208664,"sku":"9780470721353","price":90.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780470721353.jpg?v=1781456115","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/mechanics-and-physics-of-porous-solids-hardback-9780470721353","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
